Try it, you'll like it! It gives me a nice ride but does the best of any combinations I tried in dialing out the understeer.
Stiffening the rear bar removes understeer while stiffening the front bar adds understeer.

Thanks Larry. I saw your more-recent posting about what you have learned in another thread. Does it make the car any less predictable, or more prone to unexpected tail-out?
As far as the Sport shocks on standard springs - I need new shocks, so I'm looking. These are lightly used, but I'm concerned about the shorter valving on stock springs. Is it acceptable?
