Default Front and back GT3 sway bar setting. Help

I am fitting a rear and front GT3 Sway bar on my Turbo. I have some 9products adjustable drop links for the rear and some Rennline curved adjustable drop links for the front.
What would be the best setting for the bars to start with ? For fast road drive/occasionnal track.
My suspension are new all around , oem M030.
I want to reduce the roll at the front and reduce understeer ....
Thanks guys.

Although not on a stock suspension, I am one hole from full stiff front (5 way) and one hole from full soft rear (4 way). Adjust from there. Most guys will complain about understeer but in reality you just need to trail brake deeper to load up the front wheels in order to rotate the car. If you set up the car to rotate under throttle in tight turns, it will be scary loose in hight speed high G sweepers. Most of your fastest set ups will be geared towards slight understeer....

Is your Turbo still AWD?

No. RWD/LSD on GT3/Cup suspension. I've driven stock turbos and understeer is not bad, actually pretty easy to rotate as weight transfer is easy to achieve under braking with its soft squishy stock suspension.
