Yupp, for autocross you *want* some body-roll.

If you look at most of the swaybar reviews around here, most people don't use them for autocross, but report their findings on the road or the big track. I've been hesitant about the front bars for a long time and think I may finally bite the bullet since I need to keep my rear flatter out of turns. But I'll take the E90 M3 front bars instead of the E93's. Hopefully that'll be a good compromise.

Understeer in your car will be worse also because you're running a staggered tire setup. I did that last autocross during practice and absolutely hated the understeer (even without a front sway bar). Since you probably can't run a square setup and remain in stock, I'd probably bite the bullet and go back to the stock bar.
