Racing Beat Sway Bar

[Black_03 P5]

Hello everyone,
I was thinking of getting a MSP Rear Racing Beat Sway Bar just wanted to make sure I have all parts needed for this upgrade.
1) Rear Racing Beat Sway Bar
2) Brackets
3) poly bushings
4) new endlinks?
5) I have seen also about a Clunk kit for the sway bar but confused about this and is it really needed and is it possible to get

Are their be any other parts needed for this upgrade?

thank you!

If you get the MSP racing beat rear sway bar you will need everything you have listed.
Sway bar, brackets, bushings. Stock struts you should be able to use the endlinks you have or maybe get a new pair of moog end links (beefier) if you want. Clunk kit basically are relocation brackets, you can find them in the for sale section quite often i believe there was even a GB not too long ago it may even still be going on

If the end links won't fit you're gonna have to get adjustable end links. i went with awr rear sway bar and adjustable rear end links when i installed my coilovers and replaced the msp suspension i had on my p5 (rb springs and rear sway with tokico struts) hope that helps you seem to have everything listed, minus the bolts

Zackmac how do you like the AWR bar so far? Was it difficult to install, don't mean to thread jack but just curious bc ive heard that this sway is better than the racing beat due to its thickness so im thinking of going down this road instead.

don't quote me on this because i could be wrong... but if i remember correctly the stock p5 sway bar is 18mm, racing beat is 19mm, awr is 21mm and progress is 22mm.
basically i would explain it as making the rear end stiffer and more "grippy" on turns and handling. I love the awr sway bar and had really good customer service when talking to them. ended up getting motor mounts a week later haha. but it was fairly easy to do, i installed the rear sway bar at the same time i did the coilovers so everything was brand new and the rear end was already apart. no complaints, eventually i will get a set of relocation brackets if i start to clunk

Thanks you for the response! I was thinking about going with the Racing Beat Sway but for the same cost I think I might just go with the progress 22mm

The Racing Beat rear sway bar is 20 mm. I can't compare it to the Progress rear bar, but I will say I love the way my car handles with the RB.

Im thinking the same thing, and get the AWR adjustable endlinks for a pretty solid base then onto trailing arms and braces!

I have this sway bar in my P5 but, it is missing one bracket. Does anyone know where I can buy this bracket?

Yes he did and I bought this bracket which did not fit. Now I will be going back to the dealer to see if I can exchange for the correct one.
