Depends on your plans. Just bolting on different sways is pointless but if you are using them to fine tune car balance it makes sense. Running square you could just change the front, and use a GT3 bar to reset cornering balance. As others have said, the rear does not fit.

In TT competition, my brother just added a M030 rear to get the car to rotate more easily. A very low cost mod that worked great and he was fast.

Thank you for the quick responses. My goal/plan is to simply continue to develop my 2000 Boxster into a quick and enjoyable track car without regard or consideration for any rules. I have a 1986 944 racecar that is governed by a rule book, the Boxster is simply an enjoyable track day car. Any suggestions?
Here is a picture of the Boxster.
