We did an auto-x this weekend. I ran 40psi front and 34psi rear with the most success. I'm running 9k/7k custom springs. Hotchkis swaybars help reduce body roll especially in slalom.

Did you get to run an Auto-X with the stock sway bars for comparison?

The stock swaybars are honestly adequate in the front but way too soft in the rear. The car understeers like a pig from the factory.

I'm in stock class for this season so I can't change the rear bar, only the front one. I guess an alternative option would be to find and adjustable front bar that can go softer than stock.

funny you say that. i think the hotchkis front sway is MUCH to stiff, and my car has so much understeer its taken the fun out of driving it hard.

I had the same problem.

Get the SPC camber arms and set the front camber to between -2.0 and -2.5. The understeer will be completely eradicated.
