90q20v rear sway bar



Greetings,
My '90 90q20v is lovely little sport sedan but in enthusiastic driving 
(is there any other kind?) it tends to roll like, well, like a great 
big rolling thingy. Anyway, my careful scrutiny of the archives 
revealed several references to completely unrelated subjects such as 
men from mars and avocado choreography. Aside from these, though, I 
did find the odd mention of sway bars. In particular, later models of 
the 90 sedan apparently came from the factory with rear sway bars. Is 
this true? Does this mean it is a relatively simple retrofit to an 
earlier 90 sedan? I also found several discussions about the benefits 
or disbenefits (I made that word up) of adding sway bars. Again, if 
Audi decided to add them to their cars, does this come across as an 
endorsement for retrofitting them to my car or did they also change 
many other suspension bits such as the front sway bar diameter etc.?
	Very grateful for you time and trouble,
