My experience is that the car understeers in a steady state corner, while squeezing throttle only enough to maintain speed. Ham fisted maneuvers will easily cause the car to transition into oversteer though. Do the quick transitions in an autox change that, or is it just not possible to be sufficiently smooth and fast for the stock setup?
The benefits of a larger front bar, that I can see, would be quicker turn in and possibly reducing wheel spin. Is the goal really just shifting the balance toward increased understeers? If that's the only goal, why not just do it with alignment and/or tires?
