Sway bar

Suspension, like engine tuning, is getting a bunch of disparate resources to work well TOGETHER. It's a symphony, and if you fail to tune properly, expect nothing more than cacophony.

I installed the F-Sport rear bar on my IS350, and yeah it helped.. but that car had loads of body roll (and still plenty even after the bar). I considered another F-Sport bar on the ISF but the body roll doesn't feel significant enough to warrant the change.

I am eager to upgrade my ISF front sway bar, @SikkyMFG has been out of stock for a long time with no real real ETA.
I just came across Megan Racing https://meganracing.com/mrs-lx-0391
Anyone put one of these in?
It's 30mm vs Sikky's 28mm and about half the cost.
Any feedback would be great.

I have the same setup as MotoIQ with modified OEM sway bar.
They reported an improvement when upgrading the front bar to Sikky.
Here is the article: https://motoiq.com/sikky-lexus-is-f-swaybars/3/
I upgraded my rear sway bar from modified F-Sport to Sikky and really like the way it feels now in the stiffest setting.
The front needs little help, I can feel it the most, when turning in on long sweeps. I was going to go with Sikky but just discovered Megan offers 30mm unit which the extra thickness would make up for just two adjustable positions.

You sure your front springs are stiff enough to start with? I'd make sure there is enough spring before taking away the independence of your suspension with a swaybar. I'd definitely go stiffer spring before stiffer bar no matter what.
