Default Neuspeed sway bar poll: Are you running it on Soft or Stiff setting and what are the pros or cons?

Right now I'm running it on soft setting. I have gotten lose on freeway on ramps(1bads4 being my witness lol), but I think my inner balding toyo t1s tires have something to do with it also. So what setting are most of you guys running the sway bar on and what are your experiences between the two settings. TIA

Default I have it on stiff with Stasis Tracksports 700/800........

This setup give me oversteer at the track, which I like much more than an understeer set-up. Gonna try it on soft during next time at the track to see what difference it makes. Hopefully get the car a bit more neutral.

Default Ran it on soft. I didn't think the car cornered as well as with just (m)

coilovers, so I took it off.

A stiffer front swaybar will reduce oversteer and lean together.

I may try that eventually. Just want to change one thing at a time.

Installed mine on stiff, not too much oversteer. I really like it.
