front sway bar

should i keep my front sway bar on or not? I think that it might help with traction and frame twisting, but i'm trying to eliminate front end weight.

Re: front sway bar

not counting the weight I bet if you just unhook it from the control arms it will help your weight transfer. It depends how much you drive it on the street but it should be a little faster on the track without it.
