1st you don't need a roll bar, it's just added weight which slows you down.

If you go 25 in the back with 40-45 in the front your car is going to be pretty hard to control. It's going to oversteer on every turn. I would follow my suggestions above.

And maybe you didn't read what I suggested (about your sway bar):

what do you think of the current plan, and what would you recommend as the next upgrade, besides driver education, which I am planning on, but for now I just practice at events.

Nothing. Newbies and others I know change too many things at once and never really get used to their car. Most get frustrated and others keep changing things. I have not changed one thing on any of my cars because once you get used to your car and comfortable with it you are so much quicker.
Cause I bet you $100 I will be faster in your stock car than you with $5000 invested in your car.
