Mysticality is correct I purchased a Mk7 Golf GTI sway bar/ Anti Roll Bar it fits fine as you can see from the pic I have a wagon and the bar is for a hatch but they identical just the new one is thicker. Beauty of VAG is that you can dip into various parts bins
My mechanic took the car for a spin after fitting and said difference is night and day. it's adjustable too and has it set to firm which is what I like I'm keen to test it for myself and see the difference. I still need to fit my Eibach springs which should yield further improvements to handling.

Eibach springs combined with rear swaybars r one of the best handling mods one can do 😀

At this point Mechanic/ tuner is having more fun with the car. he took it for a spin after intercooler swap and says car is savage! he's said to start putting $$$ away for my clutch and LSD now as I'll need it

After more Mucking around with dyno bookings. Car is finally getting done.
Car Engine Mods:
Milltek TBE, CTS intake and Intercooler, GFB DV+
With Viezu stage 2 tune
car currently made 215KW = 288 HP at the wheels 4th gear run.
There's a decent surge between 2500 - 3500 before levelling out and becoming more linear.
Next:
car is currently being flashed back to stock map to run again as a benchmark
Then we'll be flashing the E-tuners Stage 2 map for comparison.
Then its off to get IS38, Denso Plugs Fitted and remapped with E-tuners IS38 Map and back at the dyno this evening for IS38 power run.
We currently have 2x IS38 maps their aggressive map and a milder version if clutch can't handle it.
If we need to use the milder tune, I'll retune again once I do the clutch with something better.

215kW at the wheel is very impressive. Any idea on torque values?
