Yes, the CSG BRZ still uses the stock sways. While their contribution to roll stiffness is minimal, we use them to "tidy up" the suspension. In essence, their purpose is to connect two sides to make the suspension work more efficiently, rather than to prevent body roll.
You don't REALLY think that stock rear sway is there to prevent roll, do you? It's got the stiffness of a coat hanger...
