Go with the Saner! I think there's a group buy on them now from the Go Fast Lab (Check with Rylan)
The Saner is adjustable and can be altered to fit the type of driving you plan to do. It will not only reduce oversteer, but also allow you to run 225 tires on the front instead of the 205s. The Muz isn't adjustable, and it only provides a slight advantage over stock, so I wouldn't bother. The Saner is more expensive, but well worth the dif.
The stock rear bar is adequete for most applications and probably doesn't need to be replaced. If you wanted to, Saner makes an excellent rear bar too.
IMHO

I just switched from 205/55-16 up front to 225/50-16s, and I hate them. I have always liked 225/50-16 Kumho Victoracers up front, but they have very stiff side walls. The street tires that I have now (Yoko AVS-I) have such soft side walls that the wider tires roll over way too much. I actually have LESS traction up front with the wider tires.

Putting the same size all around would be a mistake. That's not how our car was designed. Going with 225s without upgrading the sway bar is another mistake.
As for 245s in back, the stock S02 although it says 225 is actually closer to a 245. 245 is the correct replacement size if you're not going with the OEM S02.
As for tires, the shaved RA1s rock for us out in dry California. They stick like glue and wear like iron.

My point was the 225/50's in the front REDUCE grip due to rollover (for street tires), and 225/50's in the rear REDUCE grip due to reduced width. The two combined might cancel each other out, and have a stock balance on OEM wheels.
