Designed to reduce body roll, improve turn in, reduce understeer and enhance steering feel, 034Motorsport's Dynamic+ Sway Bar Kit is the ideal upgrade for those in search of confidence-inspiring handling on the street and track. The 034Motorsport Sway Bar Bundle Package is available with perfectly-matched front and rear sway bars. During 034Motorsport's extensive testing, we found the B9 Q5/SQ5 Audi Platform benefitted heavily from the increased roll stiffness of the front suspension. With significant improvements to the paired rear sway bar, a rearward-balance-focused handling characteristic with this sway bar package.

Why Not Just Run The Rear Sway Bar?

It's a common misconception that when upgrading the suspension on an Audi or VW, one should only upgrade the Rear Sway Bar while leaving the front stock, as some believe that upgrading the Front Sway Bar only increases understeer. This can be true in some applications, but in many instances, this is incorrect.

034Motorsport Engineers tested a Rear Sway Bar only upgrade for the B9/B9.5 Audi Q5/SQ5 and found that only upgrading the Rear Sway Bar led to an unstable handling dynamic that made the handling of the vehicle feel disjointed from front to rear, and our Engineers found that there was excessive body roll and weight transfer to the outside tire on the front axle when cornering, resulting in significant turn-in understeer which would quickly turn into unstable mid-corner oversteer. This drove our team to develop a Front and Rear Sway Bar combination that aimed to stabilize the front end of the vehicle for better turn-in while still allowing for a rear-bias combination that promotes significantly less understeer, all while remaining comfortable and usable for day-to-day driving.

Upgrading the Front Sway Bar when paired with a bespoke Rear Sway Bar designed to be used with the upgraded Front Sway Bar will improve weight balance across the front wheels upon corner entry, reduce body roll and dive on the outside tire, and will allow for better front end traction throughout the corner. The Dynamic+ Rear Sway Bar Upgrade is specifically sized to work in conjunction with the Dynamic+ Front Sway Bar Upgrade, increasing Front Bar Stiffness by 21-39%, and Rear Bar Stiffness by 130-158% to promote a rear-bias handling dynamic that allows the car to have significantly reduced understeer, reduced body roll resulting in great mid-corner balance, and promotes an even application of force across all 4 tires for maximum lateral grip.
