Carbon fiber may indeed have torsional strength but I don't believe you'll find it in many applications where repetitive flexing is required. You want springiness, not rigidity. And if you wrap a sway bar with the stuff (as the 2x4 was wrapped in the TV show cited, "Smashlab,") I suspect it will de-laminate from the steel in a hurry.
