Product Description:
034Motorsport’s RS+ Adjustable MQB Solid Rear Sway Bar for Audi 8V A3/S3, F3 Q3, 8S TT/TTS Quattro, and Volkswagen MK7/7.5 Golf R, Sportwagen, and Alltrack is now available! The 034Motorsport Adjustable Solid Rear Sway Bar is made from a single piece of high-quality, solid 0.938” thick spring steel for maximum rigidity, and is designed to combat understeer while reducing body roll under hard cornering without negatively impacting comfort.
Why choose the RS+ Rear Sway Bar over our Standard MQB AWD Rear Sway Bar?
Our Standard MQB AWD Rear Sway Bar was designed to provide a neutral handling experience. It reduces understeer while allowing drivers to coax their car into oversteer as desired.
The RS+ Rear Sway Bar ticks things up a notch, providing over 171% stiffer than the factory rear sway bar and an additional 70% stiffness over our Standard MQB AWD Rear Sway Bar. This additional stiffness is great for owners looking to maximize rear end rigidity, turn-in response, and better rotation—further reducing understeer and maximizing handling performance!
