I guess that makes sense. After all, reducing front stiffness increases front tire contact. You just have to get used to the increased body roll though...

That upper sway bar isn't really doing anything that you actually feel on FWD cars because the subframe cradle Is soo stiff already. Most of your understeer come from being front heavy and designed from the factory to be more understeer happy

Its not like I am telling him to remove his front bar (while using OE springs), its a small change in roll stiffness that helps keep the inside front tire in contact with the road - lts less of a change than he already made putting that big front bar on there.
