No, but I will be adding Ultra Racing's front strut brace to improve the steering response. I will say that the understeer in these cars is very minor. Nothing like Audis are setup for. I can always get power oversteer in DSC off mode, but it would be nice if it were a bit easier to do!

Looks like rear subframe needs to be dropped, will probably have an indy shop do it: https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/f...l-bar/ErXLMYbM

Couple things
1 - if you increase rear sway bar stiffness without doing the same up front, you WILL shift handling balance towards the rear.

2 - dropping the rear suspension to that degree is probably more work than the benefit of a 2mm larger sway bar could justify.

Rear subframe is < 1 hour for any competent indy shop, but I'll likely be installing this when I do KW V3s, so not a whole lot of extra work.

My point is to make the car slightly more tail happy with a lower center of gravity, which I think I will get with the stiffer rear sway + front strut brace + coilovers.

Good - you'll achieve that for sure. My post was meant to confirm that in disagreement with another opinion that had been expressed in the thread.
