Bodyroll: Use struts bars to complement it, but will shorten your shock absorber lifespan Grip: Use better tires for handling, if can use bigger rims
If u install undercarriage bar, when going over humps be slow. New cars better go for alignment cos factory did not do that.

I just think not a need for anti roll bar for torsion beam concept.
Why not just buy front strut to see how it feel first.
If not, just get lowering spring. Sure siok.

y not go do a alignment 1st, rotate ur tires or change new rubbers should improve alot. Then decide whether u need all e additional bars. I dun install bars, in sg how fast can corner? i try corner at 80km still ok ley with good tires, if u mention understeering effect sure have abit, if u think grip problem then got any screech sound from tire when corner??

No squee sound during my corner going into the bend from Punggol to kpe. I use to corner at 100km for 1 year plus. All goes well but got the swaying movement.. N I hope to reduce it. Looking for more firm n comfort ride. Hmm.. Btw u will saying change rubber.. Wad type u referring to? hmm.. Wheel alignment will helps in cornering too?

I think Edmund meant 100km/h across the bend, not corner in at 100km/h. In this case, lower ur ride will improve alot as it bring down ur car EQ point (centre of gravity)

100km/hr at a corner on a picanto?! Are u sure!? If u can do that on a picanto, you can do 150km/h on a forte.
