I forget what the stock bar diameter is, I’ll have to try to remember to Mic it. Car has the sport suspension option, so it was already uprated from the standard bar; I think sport suspension bar was around 20mm. New bar is 25.4mm and adjustable. I installed it in the full stiff setting.
I was pleasantly surprised it only took a half hour to put in.

If I still had my Golf R, RSB would have been one of the 'must have' mods.
Car drove/handled decently, but understeered a bit too much for my liking.
I wish someone made one for my Ford Edge.

Mine is a Sport (2018).
Before I bought it, there was a small group on an Edge forum who were able to have a handful of 'prototypes' made, but it never went into production, not enough demand.

Re: Installed some Conti DWS06's on the RedSport
Car is at the shop for the APR IS38 turbo software and turbo install. Very excited. My VW will be capable of pulling on 5.0L Stangs based on 99% of the YouTube videos I have been watching. Very impressive that APR is capable of the numbers they advertised (and customer verified) with the stock 60mm catted downpipe. The advantage of APR is you are highly unlikely to get a CEL with the set-up, which caters to customers in states where getting away with race cats is nearly impossible anymore.

GLI is the same way, but worse. I could stomach the rear swaybar on my GTI but I definetly want to upgrade it on my GLI. Needs it. I will do that when I upgrade my tires again. Rocking the Pilot Sport All Seasons but I suspect after the IS38 traction from a dig will be an issue so I will slap some stickier hoops on it next year. It's about to get parked for the winter in a month or so, not worth it now. I believe my stock swaybar in the back is 22mm upgrades are 25-28mm.

Advertised with FBO(full bolt-on) is 396hp 406lb-ft. I have two of the four "bolt-on" the next will likely happen next year. One of which is of very dubious value...the catback. That will be more of a weight reduction than a power gain going with the MBRP system with no mufflers, just a Helmholz resonator thingy on it. Weighs like 40lbs less than the factory system. Lol. The other bolt-on still needed is an intercooler which I do need. Even stock my last two VWs have bad heat soak in the summer months.
