I just picked up one for my gsr and haven't been to the track yet to see if it handles any better, but I've been told by others that it's beneficial.

Like I said, it didn't change the alignment specs by much. Can't really tell how much of a difference the bar alone made. When I installed the bar, I also installed a battery relocation kit (more weight in the trunk) and reached enough miles to get past the break-in point. So the way I drove the car with the bar changed from without having the bar.

The car can oversteer pretty easy on turns & off/on ramps if I lay into the throttle. Do this everyday on the way to work. For $40 I'm not dissapointed by this mod.
