Default Thoughts on rear double wishbone + rear strut bar

For those with a rear strut bar, do you notice any difference at all? If you do, how much would you honestly say is legitimate, and how much of it psychological (placebo is a powerful drug)?

My thinking is that it wouldn't matter much with a double wishbone suspension, since the upper A-arm basically does the job of the strut bar, unless the chassis is made of butter.

Thoughts? Experiences?

I have no intention of getting a rear strut bar because, despite being a hatchback, I really don't think it'll do anything. I'm just curious.

Definately go with the Ingalls. The rear strut bar is just for looks IMO. I have one and it pretty much does nothing for me. I would like to get the Ingalls but I want my compartments and dont want to cut. Im not good at cutting...LOL!!
