I think that it's very important to have a matched set of bars and springs.

The wagons have stiffer springs (reducing the need somewhat for a larger bar), but IMO you'd still want to make
sure your car will handle predictably with the setup you're thinking about. Perhaps a call into IPD is in order.

My friend's wagon has Bilsteins on all four corners, and overload springs on the rear... and it still feels like
there's a bit much body roll in it for me. However, it does bounce around quite a bit on the highway.. but when
all is said and done I think some stock turbo bars on that car would be real nice.
