Stiffer front setup would cause more understeer under "near-the-edge" driving style. After the "near-the-edge" status, it will be followed by oversteering but the room for correction is very limited as the speed is even higher than before this mod. Please do drive with a greater caution and change to bigger wheels/better tyres before driving real fast.
will definitely go for 18" soon
still looking for a lighter wheels with affordable price.....
btw i also torching my tyres in these rainy days
haha

From the beginning , i think this tower bar have 80% function on visual and 20% on function
but after a few corners...
i'm sure This tower bar is more than just decoration
i can feel the suspension action on left and right more "connected"
will consider the next mod as sway bar and the 3 wonder bars now
another deco mod...

I would not make the car any more stiffer until he has change to wider wheels with better grip or the car will slide like hell.
that is what I had before the wheels which was a nightmare to drive fast.
