Its FWD you are always going to have understeer unless you relocate your upper strut mount location placing them more forward...have fun with that though.

upgrading my rear sway bar (or even installing one) will make it worse, true?

If you have ever taken a physics class, its not hard to figure out.
A stiffer rear bar reduces body roll. Body roll causes a outward momtentum when going through turns, thus pushing the car towards the outside of the turn. This is easiest to demonstrate on snow, when the back just slides out.
actually, I dont think i can do this explaination justice. Im gonna let some one else take over. . . sorry bro.

How does one reduce the effects of understeer when going at higher speeds?
or, in another way...
How do I improve high speed cornering?
