In stock form, our cars will have some slight understeer. (It's safer this way)
There are couple easy ways to cure this. You could have slightly less air in your front tires, so they will grip better.
You could get a spring or an adjustable suspension kit that will lower the front by about half an inch compared to the back. (You will have to test and tune this yourself to your liking)
You could also lighten your front part of your car(front of dashboard). Such as carbon fiber hood, aftermarket header, taking stuff off.
You could put some negative camber in your front tires. Ideal on race track is suppose to be about -2.5 degrees. But if you want even wear on your tires, you might just want to do about -1 degrees.
Strut bars don't really cure understeering.
Sway bars keep you from rolling. If you put stiff sway bars in front, soft on back. you will more likely get some understeering. Stiff back and loose front will get you some oversteering.
The kind of setup you want to avoid are the ones when you force an oversteer by lowering the rear traction. This will just make the car unpredictable, and not improve your time. What you want to do is make the rear grip really well, and then make the front grip even more.
