Besides using lowering shocks, spring and lowering the torsion bar. Are there additional means to improve the handling of the PuG? I see some people uses the upper strut bars. Does that really work? I am not sure lower ones are for Pugs.

YES plex you can change out bushings to what is called energy suspension, you can change out sway bars also & upper strut bars really do work.. when the car is cornering you can feel the difference at that point most with the strut bar...i see people use honda strut bars & drill & re-fit them to the pug...i am not sure how this handles as it is not original fit but there are the original ones...i use the OMP brand on my pug & i wont take it off for anything.

I think i may have to custom make a strut bar for the front tower on my car cuz you can hardly find any aftermarket parts for my 605 but i guess thats where the fun is.
