In the case of this sway bar, the car can become more tail-happy and could possibly catch you out if you're not careful. Although FF cars tend to understeer on power, they can suffer from lift-off oversteer and pitch you into a corner pointed the wrong way.

The TRD bar is not even close to being that stiff. The car will still push at the limit with the TRD bar, lowering springs and stiffer dampers.

You would need coilovers with significantly heavier springs to get lift-off oversteer in this car.
