Default only rear sway bar??

i plan on autocrossing my DA this summer, and i am in the market for suspension technique sway bars and a strut tower bar. Most people suggest only using the rear susp. tech. bar, because the front doesnt do much. is this true, or should i get both bars?? i am also looking at the Neuspeed 4pt. front strut bar, are there any other alternatives to this bar in the same price range that offer more support like a 3pt. bar???

anything that connectors to points together on your chasis can only improve it

the stock front bar is pretty big while the rear stock is tiny (15mm in a EF) i have the st bars for my rex and they are alot bigger than stock, but my car is still on blocks so i cant comment on performance yet.

the front sway bar does do a whole lot

for one it helps the car resist having excessive amounts of body roll
but if the balance of the front and rear is too differentthen it will either push real hard or the rear end will break loose too easily
