| Neutral : +1 score Ya, it adds weight. The car already comes with the best kind, that braces the strut against the firewall. All the front sway bar will do is create understeer. No real need, since these cars already enough!

| Neutral : +1 score bigger front sway = more understear (not good) bigger rear sway = less understear (good) strut bar = waste of money
