Off track the bigger sway bar is not necessarily an improvement from what I was told by someone who tarmac rallied his M2C (he even went to a smaller rear bar to improve traction on corner exit). As explained to me it depends on tyre grip, the bigger bar effectively increases spring rate in the corners & can defeat tyre grip causing slip. If it's only on track where you push the car that's fine, but if you also go to twisty mountain roads (which by nature aren't the nice flat/even surfaces you get on track) running bigger sway bars may compromise corner grip there.
