People go for a smaller one on the front which will make the front of the car a little less stiff than the rear and this is meant to get rid of some understeer. But like I said, I've been told you should get the same size front and back and just have your car set up properly with a few other mods to back up what you have just done...

Go 20 or not at all. Stiffen the front too much and it'll go straight on in corners like mine does.

Think that's more specific to the newage chassis as its stiffer/heavier than the classic.

This ^^^

No difference between classic & new age as far as bar differences

Unless you have specific set-ups in mind, or prefer a particular handling balance, a smaller front works well
