Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras - View Single Post - Would I really benefit from a larger RSB?

I'm thinking ahead here but I'd still like to know...

Would I really benefit from an upgraded rear sway bar, such as the adjustable Whiteline 24mm bar, on a STi that has conservative suspension upgrades? Say just Prodrive springs, WL 26mm FSB and a better alignment.

I've read that a larger FSB does wonders for these cars much like a 20mm RSB does for older Imprezas but what about out back?

I'm not doing any sort of organized racing right now, just open track days and daily driving. The roads here in Germany aren't the smoothest and I don't want to stiffen up the suspension too much but improving overall grip is the goal. Thoughts?
