Default swaybar + 3" exhaust = ???

I have been looking into replacing my rear sway bar, but I'm also about to get a 3" exhaust. I dunno wether or not to get the comptech combo sway bar or the ITR 22mm sway bar... Does anyone know if the would be any fitment issues?

i have a solid 21mm rear bar, and a 3" exhaust on my gsr 4-door with no problems. just make sure you reinforce the mounting points on the chassis for the bar. mine has riped off twice now.

I have heard that using the ITR sway bar on non-ITR LCA can be an issue? I'm leaning towards the comptech sway combo, but it looks like the clearance on the combo might be too tight for what I'm looking to do. People are saying that if you put a couple of washers between the ITR sway bar and the LCA that the angle problem will be solved, but that solution seems a bit iffy for me.

I had a problem with the Thermal with larger sway bar. We just had to reweld some piping and it was all good after that.

I have ST swaybars and a Thermal 3", they hit each other. With a stock Integra swaybar it was all good though.

I have pics of the exhaust getting fitted. I know the angle had to be changed right before the sway bar and the hangers were modded to accomadate. I will get the pics up when i get home, i know i have them.

I have a hatch with an ITR rear bar, and 3" over axle exhaust....it was a tight squeeze, but it doesn't rub or hit anything.
