I have 550 springs for the front.. and 310s for the rear, would that make any difference or do I need to make a bigger change?

Steve,
The springs you have don't sound bad. You don't want to loose all the compliance as you will loose traction quicker when the road or track surface isn't optimum. Not to mention if you drop a wheel off in the corner or hit the curbing it can really upset the car. If I read right, you said the rear bar is disconnected. I'm not sure what bar you have on the front, but I would try a bigger bar on the front and connect your rear bar. This should help keep the balance and gain roll stiffness in the corner, but keep some of your compliance. Obviously, I don't know your exact specs or if you have these options, just a suggestion. Penny is looking really good!
