[s-cars] Happerbar review and the Dark Side...

[Richard Tanimura]

And I thought you only reviewed the kind of bars where you meet chicks :-)

You put 26 mm in the back. This is the 2Bennet bar? Stock in the front?
Harder ARB bushings too or not?

Guys,
Have had the 26mm rear bar on since Friday and let me
take this opportunity to say...

HOLY FREAKIN CRAP, IS THING THING SWEET! (Edited for
content and IT Polizei)

In a word, even with Paul K's crappy and now bald 16"
rubber, the car handles pretty damn nice now.  Say
goodbye to the typical Audi understeer, and you're
going to have to change your driving habits so you
don't end up hitting the wall with your trunk.  :-)
Car turns in amazingly good now and there is virtually
no sway or body roll.  Oversteer's there when you want
it and the only time I got understeer is when I really
wanted it (going into turn off throttle and turning
in, but easily provoked into oversteer).  Besides the
oversteer giggle factor, it has tightened up the
ENTIRE car.  Over bumps and mild potholes, the car
feels less likely to fall apart, as it did
pre-UberBar.  Now, the car feels tight, no body roll
and is a lot more confidence-inspiring when going into
a corner, although a driving style adjustment is in
order.

Also did a rear Torsen and rigged up diff lock switch
to dispense beer from aquamist nozzle located on A
Pillar.  (Hops/Barley injection, anyone?)

As a result of these recent modifications, I've come
to the conclusion that I need more power, so with an
RS2 turbo and manifold sitting on my plastic-covered
couch from 1973, does anyone have installation
notes/advice for me?

Thanks,
Joe
