Default sway bar question for FWD a4

Im going to put on a 28mm neuspeed sway bar..here is the thing i have quite a bit of extra weight in the trunk from stereo equipment, dont know the exact weight but its from 150-300 lbs extra...should i set the sway bar to be stiffer to compensate for the extra weight or softer to compensate for the extra weight?

Default I'd start at the medium setting first

I want my sway back, bitch! got a workout equipment idea :P But anyways, if you want more over/under --steer you can always easily adjust... Personally, with all that weight you got back there, I'm not sure I would want it on stiffest, especially with fwd. Sliding the back end out with all that rear weight, hmmm, unless you're already used to that type of driving....

Default I actually thought they would charge you more

Did you go straight to Neuspeed for the parts? That's still a sweet deal if you think about it. Rear sway is gonna be so much fun when you get it. The c/os? I ordered them from Eric/Spp a while ago. They've been on my car for a couple of days. You'll see my car on Thursday anyway...
