Default How big is my 944"S" swaybar

Just wondering if anyone knows how big the stock 944S swaybar is. I do not have the M030 option. Will it make much difference if I upgrade to a turbo 27MM bar?
Thanks

Stock for a 944S is 21.5 mm solid. So a 25 mm will make a noticeable difference in body roll...

And also a big gain in understeer, which is not a good thing!

My $0.42: Leave the front stock, and upgrade the REAR sway bar to a 968 M030 19mm 3-way adjustable. Set it to medium or soft, and go from there.

So you have some body lean, big deal! Upgrading just the front sway bar will just make your car handle worse!

Of course, YMMV,
