Hey Ken,
Please bear in mind you addressing a rank middlin driver here! And to that point, your previous post WRT lap data is, of course, indisputable since data is the real deal; "feel" deceives. And finally, I was being a bit of a smarta** ...mea culpa
But in truth, I did go to some lengths many, many moons ago to get my 993 neutral on the track, albeit still remain a good daily driver. I ended up with PSS9s, good alignment, cornerweighted, and an RoW rear swaybar (21mm, IIRC) which alone made a world of difference. The car is, in truth, neutral and easily coaxable into under/over steer ...or correct fast driving
I even had a pro driver (ex-Indy guy, yeaow!!) drive me in my car and he liked how "such a heavy car" (lol!!) felt and felt very intuitive, even with modest R-comps ...this at Streets of Willow which as you know is rife with turns with nary a straight. As for me, I won't share my WSIR or Buttonwillow times as that would be publishing truly embarrassing data that could haunt me forever
...lol!!!

I once had the M030 bar on the rear ...it's 20mm, IIRC. But as soon as I saw an RoW M030 pop up, I snagged it. These are 21mm, hard to come by for obvious reasons, but the best buy on the planet, IMHO. They fit in the standard droplinks like the USA M030, a true no-brainer installation (which can't be said for some aftermarket sways), but offers you just enough extra stiffness that renders the car dead-neutral. With conservative PSS9s, a bit more neg camber (F: -1.2/ R: -2.0), these M030 bars, and modest street tires with stock Cup IIs, the car tracks like rails, and turn-in is crisp and distinct. And when I tracked it with R-comps it offered steller feel and stick! If you ever hear of this rear bar FS, grab one w/o thinking twice

However chances you have got there by maxing out a setting somewhere, for me I am in the middle of all my settings for the suspension (sways, shock bump and rebound) for me now I have fine tuning both ways so I can truly adjust my handing through my suspension.
