No. I said that I have NEVER seen a 996TT with this mod. (It's silent.)

I have both front and rear GT-3 bars and I can tell you it did remove the understeer. I have autocrossed the car and have done a 4 wheel drift around a corner (wow!). On the track, I can do power oversteer. Understeering is totally gone!
I went from stock to front/rear bars so I don't know the consequences of just using the rear bar only.

I've found that with the stock bars, understeer can be controlled reasonably well with a bit of trail braking when entering the corners and with a little extra juice on the way out, oversteer / 4 wheel drifting is easily accomplished.

I've never driven a TT with anything other than stock (ROW) suspension. I've never really understood the "understeer issue". What am I missing?
