Question New Progress Auto Rear Anti-Sway Bar

The Progress Group, Inc. Online Store

Has anyone had any experience with this piece, or judging by the photos can you give an opinion as to whether it may be worth the money in terms of cutting down understeer just a bit? Thanks!

Thread already exists: Progress Auto Rear Anti-Sway bar! WITH DIY PHOTOS PAGE 5!

Some say go with it, other claim it does nothing.
I put a beefier sway bar on my Civic and felt a difference, so I say that it will do something rather than nothing.
