difficulty depends on which one your plan to go with. i have a BENEN, and it was ten times easier to install than my NEUSPEED tie bar considering the benen is a single solid, non-moving piece. If you have jackstands, impact tools and a friend for moral support you should be fine.
AS FOR PERFORMANCE... well personally, i haven't noticed much difference. It just looks cool as hell, and that's why we play with our cars, isn't it?

It doesn't really do much, but it sure doesn't hurt anything.

i have ebay front and rear lower tie bars. The work great. and look good. I kinda felt the front be stiffer, and everyone says that the ride is stiffer also. it is fun taking corners and have my *** end kick out

i have the rear tie bar bling courtesy of skunk2. i've noticed the hardest part of this install is getting to bolt to thread through the tie bar, lca, and sub frame.

they don't really do much unless you get the srr or the comptech tie bar that help protect your subframe from ripping from the swaybar that they come with.
