86_Insider, how did you obtain the deflection measurements? Did the hysteresis shown in the graph occur consistently on the stock car?
That is Grimmspeed's data. Grimmspeed did the testing on the product to get the data which is going to be pretty much the same for any straight bar with out flex joints.

When picking a strut bar it's good to go with one that is not adjustable or have joints if you want one that will do something that is.

Right now that list is GTSpec, Grimmspeed, AEM, FT86 SpeedFactory, and Hotchkis that I know for functional strut bars. Grimmspeed did a great job on the price point and product.
