Sway bars are 3x the better upgrade choice.

sway bar and strut bars are totally different. one affects the suspension and the other the chassis. just because both use the words "bars" does not mean they have ANYTHING to do with each other. a strut abr will stiffen that aprt of the cassis, a sway bar affects the suspension and how weight is transferred under load from one side to the other.

Most of the reviews in this forum are positive, but provide very little detail. That said, it's still on my list of to-do's.

One thing noted is that it will likely make a bigger difference if you're RWD.

As said above, changing your sway bars will certainly make a noticeable difference. Probably more so than the strut bar.

Its not a game changer. Is there benefit? Yes. To varying degrees based on what other suspension/chassis upgrades you have. Must have? No. Worth it? I think so.
