So will this car be seeing any track time? or is this a car that will be for everyday driving and what not? If it will be seeing track time, Id actually recommend going with a bigger rear sway bar. But daily driving, stock Si sways work.

actually while your idea sounds good, you couldve skipped the front sways. a stiffer si front sway will induce more oversteer. if you use only the rear si sway you will have more neutral handling.

cancel front sway order if you still can.

keep in mind, this is for his wife's car. Still dont know what the overall goal for this is. If all she does it drive it to and from work and around town, then she shouldnt be pushing it to the point where it will oversteer. You would have to be pushing it pretty hard to be doing that.
