No doubt both of you will also be noticing more pronounced
understeer
if you do, and it bothers you, time to add a rear bar as
well!
Increasing roll-stiffness in the front will invariably either
increase understeer or decrease oversteer
which of these results
depends on what the steer characteristics were prior to making the
change. If the car oversteered badly (not very likely) then the
oversteer will be reduced. If it understeered, then it will
understeer even more with the increased roll-stiffness. Likewise,
increasing roll-stiffness at the rear will either increase oversteer
or decrease understeer depending upon previous steer characteristics.
