Default Sway bar

I am thinking of getting a sway bar installed, does this effect the ride alot?
I want less pitch just dont want to feel like im driving a piece of plywood.

I believe a sway bar reduced roll and not pitch. If you want to reduce pitch (which to me means swat under acceleration and dive under braking), you'll need a stiffer suspension.

the RS4 sway bar will make a big difference on your car. It will make a big difference in turning and "sway" of the car going around the turn. I highly recomend it for the price. Your still going to get that rolling effect unless you change your springs, but the sway bar will help alot.
