i went with CT engineering 19mm rear sway bar. claims it's a 65% increase in stiffness over stock, not sure about THAT but it is a major difference.

even when driving in a straight line, you can feel how much more stiff the rear end is from a minor bump in the road

worth checking it out..

i read an article somewhere that the only thing missing on oem 2006+ honda civic is a rear sway bar and i [i]think[/b] the article mentioned the eibach rear sway bar to be a perfect match. i'll post up the link if i can find it

I doubt you would see much difference between brands. Providing the diameter is the same.

i'm running progress and like it altough it is a dedicated track ek. So far no complaints except for the installation was a little more involved. I decided to weld the center brackets.
