rear sway bar
Hey all. again... I have a question about the rear sway bar. Paired with a front strut bar and lowering springs, will the rear sway bar make a noticable difference? A difference worth 150 bucks? I do turn kinda hard, and i do notice alot of roll, but i also hear the lowering springs (all TRD parts btw) are pretty stiff.

Yeah it will. Rear sway will make a hell of a difference. I would Get the hotchkis combo if youre lookin for both front and rear. If not just go with the TRD.

well i plan on keeping my warrantee so i'm sticking with trd parts.
unless TRD has a front sway bar, i'll make with just a rear. I heard it really roughens up the ride though. is that anything to worry about"?

No, it does not roughin' up the ride. It only makes the right tigher in a turn.
There are NO cons to putting in a thicker rear sway bar. Unless you put it in yourself, then it can be a ***** if you don't drop the exhaust... which I didn't.

what are other great modifications to do to the tC though?
it doens't need to be suspension. i just don't want to take up more room in the forum. (relating everything to its price ofcourse. i probably can't afford to put in a turbocharger/supercharger.)

Ingalls rear shock brace
Axxis Ultimate Brake Pads PowerSlot or StopTech Slotted Rotors StopTech SS break lines NST short shifter (if you want it to stay stock height) 3B Specialities (Operatic) H.I.D. Headlights TRD/Hotchkis Strut bar TRD spring/struts Hotckis Rear/Front Anti-Sway bars Dr. Isotopes Cable/Cage Poly Shifter Bushings All that is relatively inexpensive compaired to turbo/super. I know this because I have bought all of the above (except rotors).

7-8psi.
I think the wastegate is set for 8.5psi. Thats it.... unless I get the bug and want to blow the motor so I have a good reason to rebuild it even better (low comp. pistons, sleeve the engine, etc.etc.)

I bet, but if I ever wanted 400+whp, I'd have to go AWD... RWD in the least.

The 2009 Toyota Matrix comes with the 2AZ-FE in an AWD format. I am curious to see one to see the mods needed for a swap.
