Product Description:
034Motorsport's Adjustable MQB Solid Rear Sway Bar Upgrade for the Mk7/8 Volkswagen Golf R, 8V/8Y Audi A3/S3 Quattro, & MkIII Audi TT/TTS Quattro is engineered to improve the handling dynamics and balance of MQB and MQB-Evo platform vehicles. The 034Motorsport Adjustable Solid Rear Sway Bar is made from a single piece of high-quality, 22.2mm thick spring steel for maximum rigidity, and is designed to combat understeer while reducing body roll under hard cornering.
This product was tested thoroughly on the street and track on 034Motorsport's 2016 Audi S3 Development Vehicle and multiple enthusiast-owned MQB Audi/Volkswagen vehicles before release. The 034Motorsport Adjustable Solid Rear Sway Bar substantially reduces understeer and body roll on 8V Audi A3/S3 Quattro, MkIII Audi TT/TTS Quattro & MkVII Volkswagen Golf R vehicles without compromising comfort on the street.
In addition, the 034Motorsport MQB Rear Sway Bar is engineered to be used effectively with the stock front sway bar. No upgrade in the front is required. The addition of a stiffer front bar can positively affect turn-in feel, but ultimately worsens the platform's tendency to understeer. With the stock front sway bar and upgraded 034Motorsport Solid Rear Sway Bar, body roll is virtually eliminated while turn in and off throttle oversteer are greatly improved.
For owners that are looking to extract even more rotation out of their vehicles, The RS3/TTRS Spec Rear Sway Bar can be fitted onto the MK7/8 Volkswagen Golf R and 8V/8Y Audi A3/S3. The RS3/TTRS Sway Bar is manufactured from 0.938" solid spring steel and is adjustable between 81% and 102% stiffer versus factory Audi RS3/TTRS hollow rear sway bars!
