Lol...I'm pretty sure that was a slip of the tongue. He definitely knows the difference, since he was one of the first people designing performance parts for our cars. He probably said F-Sport because back in the day before he created the Sikky sway bars, some guys were putting F-Sport sway bars on the ISF because they were thicker than the stock ISF sway bars (If my memory serves...that was years ago).

Whiteline makes good adjustable links.

Exactly. He was talking about the F sport sway bar and got twisted up.
I believe when I take the trip from NC to Maryland to get my Sikky V2 headers from them and installed, I may let them do the front and rear sway bars.

Installed my Sikky rear sway bar about 2 months ago and hitting the track for this first time this year Labor Day weekend. Can't wait to see the difference!

As it used to be, one would get the rear links with purchase of the rear bar. The front bar would not come with aftermarket endlinks.
Not sure if that's how Sikky and JE still do it.

I've had the bars for a while and love em.

Is an alignment needed after these are installed? Do they come in other colors?

No alignment needed when adding anti roll bars.

I would love your feedback. I want the rear bar badly.

Yes, that is exactly right. That is about the time we designed this bar and started selling it. No point in ever buying an Fsport bar if the Sikky bar's softest setting is equivalent to that bar which is why we designed it that way. Thanks for clarifying though!
