(Refering to EK civics)

When adding a rear sway to a US market Civic, anything over the size of the Si rear sway should have suitable "subframe" reinforcement. The factory Civic Type R which runs a larger-than-Si sway bar has factory bracing to prevent rear suspension damage. The price of a large sway bar's benefit manifests as the sway bar is counteracting the LCA, the sway bar twists. As it twists, the sway bar exerts force upon the subframe and tries to pull itself away from the car. Without any reinforcement for a larger bar, the sway bar will pull itself away from the car on extreme movements and possibly tear away its mounts from the rear subframe. If you are planning on a larger-than-Si rear sway (including the Civic Type R and all DC2 Integra), please consider reinforcement options from Beaks or A-Spec-Racing.

Does anyone have an actual report of how the car handles before/after other that doesn't include words like "drastic" or "rails" etc.

i don't think 2mm+ is going to create any suspension damage. You might want to get beefier endlinks, but other than that, I can't see anything else needed for the Civic Si.

You need to hold the end of the threaded end of the link with an Allen wrench while you turn the nut with an open end.

Exactly.

I've had mine on for about 6 months now, and it's probably the best mod I have.

you guys install it with your car jacked up or flat on the ground. cause i read something about underload and overload don't really know what is that about? can any confirm this?

I just installed mine yesterday, it's good to have the car jacked up while you bolt everything together but keep the endlinks loose. then when your done with the bolts take the car off of jacks then get back under and tighten the endlinks now.

I just put mine in last night. Its really sad the size of the stock one. Cornering is much neater now. Next for me is a springs.

its a 5mm difference. Redshift motorsport has some reinforcements.
