will upgrading front sway make getting to tune difficult?

I have JB+ will upgrading front sway to thicker, non- kinked bar lead to one more obstruction in the way of me and my tune? removing the carbon filter etc. and the rear of the dual cones is very annoying as it is. will upgrading the front sway make it even more difficult due to the bar being more so in the way? thanks
