Ultra noob question

Can someone with a 99+ please take a picture of their car's stock front swaybar? I want to make sure I know EXACTLY where it is and EXACTLY what to unbolt when I jack up the car and get under it. Also, I hear that they'll knock 1-2 tenths off... is it really THAT good of a mod? 1-2 tenths is the same you'd get from a catback exhaust

Sorry man, no digital camera here or I would. The best description I can give you is act like your changing your oil. Position yourself under the oil filter and then center yourself to the car. Look back about a foot and a half or so and youll see it bolted down there.
The bar is only around a foot and a half or two feet long as well I think.
Hope this helps.

I could probably take a pic tommorow when I get off work, but until then do a search on here because I've seen a post similar with a pic.

its the only bar spanning from one side of the engine bay to the other thats metal and about 1.5" in diameter

Is it right in front of the first cats, and right between the back portion of the front 2 tires? Round shaped? Looks like its only held on by 2 bolts, right? Once those 2 bolts are removed, it'll come right off? Do you feel a BIG difference when you're launching or driving the car hard? (in a straight line)

Update: Got under the car, looks like I need a 15mm socket to take it off... looks like the best fit. Tried a 15mm wrench, but the bolts are too rusted on to budge.. need a ratchet bit, I'll pick it up tommorow. I'll let ya guys know if I feel any difference
