To answer your question....No.
The SS 1LE has some body roll. You are good. Here's mine at Pitt Race. More speed, more loading, more body roll. Crazy fast.

Almost any car is going to roll, with swaybars. There are a few exotic mechanical systems to outright prevent it, but it'll still squat a bit on that tire. Autocross is no different and you can still be pulling some significant Gs. We may not be going 100 miles an hour through a turn, but we are still loading the tires to the limit of what they can hold on to and you are damn sure going to roll the body some.
Sometimes, more roll is good to get weight transfer, but the big issue I have is the throttle is only linear in track and in any other setting it makes the rear wheels break loose too easy due to the progressive throttle in those settings.

I added a hotchkiss front bar to mine only in that I run square Nankang tires and didn’t want to fight the rear end looseness in autocross. That bar set soft and -2.8 camber gets me good use of the inner tread block. With stock bars I used only about 2/3 of the inner block. Car stays flatter, but still has some , better turn in and no power down on exits
