Will I notice a difference? No tracking so far just hard street driving.

More is not better......
Stasis suspensions were not designed to function with bigger sways, nor were the bigger sways designed to be used with an upgraded suspension.
What is lacking with the Stasis alone? Try to identify what flaw or deficit you want to try and improve or fix before just doing "more".
My personal experience with this was with a B5 S4. I went from an MTM suspension with Neuspeed rear bar to the Stasis Track Sport. I found the set-up absolutely unbearable with the upgraded sway. I put the stock bar back and the suspension performed perfectly.

Sorry to say but my experience on the track with the RS4 with both the MS suspension and H-Sports...
Was very positive.
I also was a passenger in another RS4 with the same set up on the back road where the pavement was less than ideal and found the car to be totally comfortable.
Does he need them? The answer is no.
Can he live with an H-Sport installation? I would certainly think so.
Should he buy them? That's his decision.

Re: You can and it will help in the roll axis and if set to the stiffest position (rear bar)...
Ya I still feel a little roll when taking a tight turn, now it may be due to my setup I dont know. I went with the factory setup. I have put a lot of money into addons and another 500 is nothing if it will help my car handle better. Its just when I go fast and I hit a bump in the road I dont feel comfortable. I just wish it was a little tighter. I am guessing this may be the answer.

chicken and egg
I got the bars 1st and stasis MS suspension 2nd. Long story/short - I only had the sways for a few hours prior to the MS install. Love the combo. . . and no body roll.
