Newby/tech article/sway bars

Hi, i'm a newby here to the german look forums. I was breezing through the tech articles on suspension and the one on suspension choices mentioned that the only choice for the type 1 were sway away sway bars or porsche varieties. I'm in the process of building up a 1600 cc powered beetle for auto-x. Mine is a standard ball joint with IRS. I found sway bars from whiteline out of australia for my beetle. A lot of local subaru owners that autocross use these bars. The ones i bought were fully adjustable (not gay adjustable end links like a lot of sway bars i've seen, but real stiffness adjustability) 22mm front and 27mm rear sway bars. Now i've never driven the car with em on, so i can't tell you too much about them...but the rear one fit pretty good (front one is still in the garage waiting for all this snow to melt). Has anyone else run these? or is there some reason why nobody has run these. They cost me 160 bucks each shipped to my door and with the huge adjustability options, they like should do very well on my car. I just wanted to see if anyone else has tried these or if no one has, to tell others about another option that is out there for sway bars.

Nick
