RRM antisway and strut tower bar for 09 DE

OMG. I have the strut tower bar and anti sway bar from RRM and my now corners like it's on rails. I went up one of those 360 degree ramps on a freeway while flooring it and the car stuck to the road. I was trying to break traction to see if the back end would swing out a little but it would not budge. I need to take my car to the track or the desert to full test the bar out.

If you have a 09DE, you really need to get both of these bars. My wife doesn't have any suspension mods on her 09DE and you can really feel the car lean over on a tight turn and it seriously understeers.

I have the anti-lock brake package and the car wouldn't brake traction. It felt like a brake was being applied but on the DE, the package doesn't come with traction control does it?

Are you confusing ABS with traction control?

Very nice to hear that man, i am looking into getting a sway bar myself but not the strut tower bar. the sway bar you purchased is 22mm right? did you have to purchase the end links separately?

thats how a stock GTS feels. mitsu knows what they're doing when it comes to handling...

if the GTS had an extra 50hp and an LSD, it would easily be the best car in its class

i dont know about 50 more hp maybe if it had like 25 more but yea i see what your saying, it is definitely the best looking in its class.

ive said it before the strut bar and sway bar are a MUST upgrade for any 08,09 DE lancer. Glad you liked the parts, and yes you will need extra hardware for the sway bar for the DE that i believe RRM sells separately. also it is 22mm...

Don't remember how many MM it was, you'll have to ask Rock.
