Default a (somewhat) complicated suspension question

I have an '88 CRX DX with Koni Yellows, ES full bushings and 205 Victoracers on it. The last thing I do before I start the autocross season is but on bigger swaybars. Since my DX has none on, I am starting from a clean slate, and want some opinions. I was reading about the Spoon type R and they have 26mm bars on the front and 24mm bars on the back. I know that their suspension setup is different, but I am wondering, since this is the start of my racing career, should I go this way? Or, should I put on a bigger rear one and just leave it at that? I think my first autocross, i will just leave it the way it is to get settled, then I will make my purchase, but I want to know what I should do. thanks

Definitely drive your car before you decide what bars to buy. You don't say anything about springs; are they stock, if not what rates? If they are stock you will probably want very thick bars front and rear. But like I said, you will not be able to make an intelligent decision on what ARBs to buy until you autox the car and see what changes need to be made. I might even suggest doing more than one event before making that decision.
