Default Sway bar suggestions

I've been reading a lot of posts on this board about sway and anti-sway bar performances and applications, and I'm still a little confused. I have a 00 Ex civic, and I was considering getting both the front and rear ST sway bars, but I've read a bunch of posts suggesting to just get a rear sway bar and work with my stock front sway bar. I was wondering about other peoples experience with their sway bar setups, and I was hoping for some suggestions dealing with the under/over steering handling of their cars. What I really just want is a car that can corner really well, and rides like a go-kart I know that a lot of people will say to learn your ride (and how to drive) first, but I think I've gotten the hang of things, and that's where I want to be eventually, and I don't have a lot of money to try different things out. Little help?

ST have been known to rip out in the rear due to the crappy mounts. Really I was in your situation looking at everything out there. Comptech's rear bar and tie bar combo is the best and will out do the rest.
U don't want a stiffer front bar, just the rear.

comptech rear bar/tie bar is by far my favorite. oh by the way I have the ST front and rear sway bars for 1 1/2 years now and I go to the mountains and canyons on a regular basis and no problems yet. just my .02
