For me it felt like the rear end was more planted and also smoothed out the drivability.

I wish I would have read this entire thread because I have now fallen victim to drilling the antenna hole in the wrong spot on the body, haha.

If porkchop can't take care of you contact Chicky at Serpent America. But note the Onroad Worlds is going on down in Texas so response maybe a bit slow until that's over. If I had an extra I'd just mail it to you.

thank you
2.5 rear stabilizes the car alot. The 2.3 adds some steering but also smooths it out overall as someone else noted. I'm still using a 2.0 front bar. I tried the 2.3 the other day and went back to the 2.0. To me the 2.0 is best most the time, especially with my driving style.
