GTI6 beam fitted, front end now has more roll
#28
Another option is fitting a larger 21mm front ARB from a GTi-6 and other sport spec cars, assuming you're still running the smaller base model item currently. That should solve the roll rate imbalance you've now got since fitting the GTi-6 beam.

Indeed, did DTurbo spec HDi's run these as standard? I'm guessing so if they used a GTi-6 (sport) spec beam with a 24mm ARB.

Generally I'd rather put stiffer springs on than a stiffer ARB on the front all things being equal as that tends to give more traction, but if you're not wanting to go lower you might not have a lot of options without experimenting with springs from other cars.
