yea i jacked up my car before i put it on, but you only have to do it for the front. the rear one you can throw on without jacking it up because it attaches to the actual strut and not just around it. with the front, your body is flexed and for it to do its job correctly, it needs to go on with no weight on it.

i think car and driver said it beat the ferrari in the high speed lane change not the slalom. i would attribute that to a short wheel base and 1.5 stock rear negative camber. putting the strut bar is improving the way it responds to quick load changes on the suspension in tight cornering.
