I have used Whiteline bars for close to 18 Solo events and numerous test and tunes and even a driving school. They have proven reliable and quiet.
In terms of weight, the weight issue may exist for a low power car like my Miata that makes maybe 90 whp. But in an STi, weight is less of an issue.
Just realize that the sway bars you decide to go with must work with your other suspension parts such as your springs and dampers. Take a holistic approach to suspension tuning versus just slapping on parts with the hopes that they work together.
Also, be very methodical about setup and keep logs and records of everything.
Lastly, go to the track and test the stuff.

My favorite suspension guys www.turninconcepts.com actually recommend NOT running the bigger bars if you are going to stay with stock springs/shocks because the bigger bars will lift your tires and you have to wait for the tire to come down to regain traction.
Anyways, go to that site...they really hook HI people up and give you a toy or candy with your purchase.
