Front Sway Bar Upgrade Opinions

I'm considering upgrading the FSB on my 93 Si and would like opinions. I've already upgraded the end links to poly bushings and have the body mount bushings ordered.

I'm concerned that upgrading only the FSB will hurt the car's handling by making it understeer more and not rotate on an auto-x course. Since I run in Stock Class, I can't add a rear sway bar.

Additionally, we'll be running r-comps next season and upgrading to Koni Sports. I feel like a larger FSB would make the car better in slaloms, but might make it push too much on tighter parts of a course.

Thoughts? Anyone used this set-up?

I would say from dont upgrade the FSB. It will give you more understeer.

I agree, for auto-x purposes I wouldn't upgrade the front bar.
