Default Comptech Race bar settings?

What setting have people with the Comptech Race front sway bar found works with 225/245 on asphalt? RA-1s or Victoracers? Thanks.

I'm running 1 hole off of full-stiff on Hankook RS-2's 225/245, but my rear shocks are toast.

I have RS-2s on another car of mine. Sounds like I should run it full stiff or one setting back from full stiff?

I've been running mine on full stiff since I got it a few years ago. Most of our events are on asphalt. The car is stock, including shocks. Alignment is -1.5 deg. front and -2.0 deg. rear with ~1/8" total toe in for the rear. I do get some understeer but that's more likely due to the use of 265s on the rear. 30 psi for the 710s all around...

Thanks for the info. I'll probably start with one setting below full stiff (just because I like the rear a little lose) and adjust accordingly if needed. The tires pressures you all use are pretty close to what I run (33-35 front and 31-33 rear). I generally set and forget because I am lazy.

Another thing to keep in mind for the tire pressures is camber, if your camber is max'd out then lower pressures may be appropriate vs less camber may need higher pressures accordingly.
