Default EG roll bar set ups

Hi guys, im wondering what is available for EG roll bars. I would prefer the set-up to be bolt in(mostly for auto-x). I am looking for a 4 point roll bar set-up with a clean finish, professional quality welds, and a good fit. I have heard of the auto-power ones but i cant seem to find an auto-power vendor on the web.
What is available for EG hatch applications?

I'll allow it here.

I/O Port Racing sells Autopower roll bars, as does Pegasus Racing Supplies.

Kirk Racing also fabricates bolt-in roll bar kits.

Why do you need a roll bar for autocrossing? It's unecessary added weight. You're not likely to roll your car at an autocross. If you intend to do HPDE or open lapping events though, you should consider a roll bar.

i would like to incorporate an added cross brace into the set-up for now. I would eventually like to compete in hpde but i don't feel my driving skills are up to par yet.

Compete in HPDE? So, there really is a HPDE Championship!? I had no idea. Just kidding.

There's really no prerequisite to doing HPDE. You already have some autocross experience, which is good. Most people do. You'd get an instructor and would be running with other people with similar experience, or less even. You don't need to be an autocross champion to move on to HPDE. Why not try it once?
