And a thicker one[like the OTTP "Hardcore" bar] makes a really big difference.
Makes even a SS corner like a slot car. I've put it to good use, and believe me it works real good. Most bars for the HHR are only one inch dia., the "Hardcore" bar is a inch and a quarter dia. With Pedders springs you don't need a front bar. The stock one works good enough. "Moon"

It corners almost like its on rails. Near zero body roll, and it handles sooo much better than without. You won't regret it at all.

It's a definite improvement. I've the TTR bar and Pedders springs. I've taken tight 2 lane highway offramps fast enough to lap other 'sporty' cars getting off at the same time. All while not having much if any body roll and no tires squealing.

SS fan: Yep, it's Over The Top Peformance. Bar is under the Cobalt section, along with other goodies that will fit the HHR-SS. "Moon"
