If you're not going to lower the car, then don't bother until you someday, if ever, get to a point where the OEM end-links are sloppy. That's just one opinion. I'm sure someone will weigh in with an overwhelming opinion otherwise, and they might even be convincing. Let's see.
Aftermarket Swaybars on the G... best mod ever for a DD. Right up there with quality 3-season tires.
In the context of that intake kit, you may or may not see some value in this thread:

Thank you for the quick reply.
I've mod several cars and in each case the sway bars. I think it's the single best mod for the money and performance. I will only do a couple of mods to this car. Sway bars, would like to replace the auto shifter with the M37/56 sport (if possible) and slightly darken my headlights / tails. I'm not too comfortable with the latter yet.

I've actually previously read through this thread while deciding on which intake to get. Thanks. Its always nice to hear a more in depth review on a product especially when it includes a review on fittament and instalation.

Just had Hotchkis sways installed. My commute is 42 miles one way. Already noticed a difference just on the way home from the shop -- bumps feel a little stiffer, but the cornering is much improved.
Also have Stillen CBE and R2C -- perfect for the long commute, no drone and sounds good when you accelerate.

Only down fall to sways is that you FEEL the road more. I've rode in a car without sways, feels just like stock but cornering some what suffers, barley though our sways don't do as much believe it or not. I've also rode in a G with aftermarket sways, huge improvement on the gripping corners and road type feeling, bump bumps are more noticeable. I just kept mine stock, I drive slow anyways around corners, old man status driving.

Depending on your automotive values, that can be an upside... not a downfall.
Like you, I've also have been laying claim to Old Man Status lately.
So it's all relative.
The car would be even more fun if the button to turn off traction control were more accessible, like near the shifter. Or if the hand-brake actually engaged the main calipers, instead of those sissy little parking brakes.
