Do you want to go around corners fast or sideways?

so i take it, if i have no rear swaybar, i can take corners faster?
theres a story behind this, i cfb typing it. i just need to know what happens if i dont have a rear sway bar on the sprinter.

Its common for the rear sway bar to be removed for improved cornering speeds.

i would imagine it depends on how the rest of the suspension in your car is setup. ae86's have a tendancy to understeer, a thicker rear swaybar would improve handling imo rather than removing it.
