The idea is that you stiffen up the turn-in of the car and control under or over-steer but adjusting the stiffness of the front of the car. Mani eff'd it all up when he started running r-comps on rear-sized rims all around (ie 255's or a non-staggered stup). The car is now going to be prone to massive under-steer unless he brings it all back in check.

The coil-overs and Gendron bar should go miles to help that out.
Backwards. He would be prone to having oversteer.

Mani is looking at oversteer, not understeer with his setup...

Correct, which is where the unhooked rear sway-bar helps.
