Ok so i got it installed and its adjustable.. There are three holes on each side of the sway bar. Witch hole do i want it connected to for the most agressive handling???
A) Hole towards the front of the car?
B) Middle Hole?

Try the middle hole and see how it feels. I think the hole closest would be the stiff setting.

If I remember correctly. The FRONT most hole is the softest setting and as you go towards the back of the car, the bar will become stiffer.

What do you mean by "aggressive handling"? The rear bar is used to control understeer. If you get too "aggressive" on the settings, you will end up with oversteer.

That's right. The shorter the leverage arm, the stiffer the setting.
