During the test drive I could feel considerable improvement in handling even with mild setting and body roll is fairly under control, but you can feel it is still there. There are some favourite spots where I can really see the handling improvement of the Tig such as long curvy downhill road sections and I can safely say there is a significant improvement in body roll.
    Surprised you didn't go for the stiffest setting first

    Oh! You know me well then hahaha .. But I felt I may need adjustable end links for stiffer setting. But not sure? Do you have them?

    No I only have adjustable end links on the front - due to the front sway bar fitment issues with the old design bar.

    There's no need for adjustable links on the rear.

    Ok, thanks Tigger, I may try that tomorrow still I am happy with the current setting.
