Alu Kreuz Billet Aluminum Drivetrain Stabilizer is it really worth it?

It really is worth it. My sentiments echo what everyone else here has said, and then some. That sort of disconnected-shimmy feeling when hitting larger bumps during cornering completely goes away. I have a little mini review here:

If you don't have sways already, consider getting some at the same time as the Alu Kreuz. The combined installation time is barely more, saving you money, since the belly pan of the car has to come off for both installations.
Eurocode was great to deal with too, FWIW.

just had mine installed one week ago.
front feels precise and tight.
road vibrations seem be transmitted more, but that translates to a more direct connection with the road.
a very nice upgrade overall.

When I had the Hochkins front and rear sway ,i felt a big change in handling and of course the front was stiffer then before .
Can someone tell me if the alu Kreuz will make it more stiffer then is now ?

There have been many positive reviews on this product and I don't really recall seeing a post from anyone who thought it wasn't worth the $

I had mine installed this morning. While it doesn't totally change the handling characteristics, it is a definate and noticeable improvement. Well worth the relatively short $$$.

I got a few of us together and we did an install party at someone's house. Just need 2 jacks (plus some jackstands for safety), sockets, a ratchet, and a Tq wrench.

I just changed out my summer to winter tires myself about a week ago. I am afraid to admit...that is a first time I have changed a tire in the 25 years I have been driving!
Besides, I actually don't know of any other S4 drivers in the Chicago burbs (although I am sure there are many others).
