Thoughts on people that mod cars not knowing what they do

This is the third person that's stated this with nothing to support it whatsoever.

Why do you believe that body roll will somehow lift the CoG?
 Overturning moment will lift the CoG and that's higher with a front ARB on a 306 because the wishbone angle will be greater with less roll.

Extra body momentum could make it roll, yes - if throw the car into a bend whilst your dampers are f*cked and you hit a kerb or ditch with the outside wheel too. In which case you were f*cked anyway.
Custom roll cages/shiny suspension bits/general fabrication work undertaken, PM me.
Top engine mount repair/reinforcement/chocking for cracked chassis and high powered cars, drive in, drive out, 2 hour turnaround.
