rear sway bar extension question

Im swapping my 24mm rear sway bar for a 19mm rear on our autocross car. I think 19 might still be a little stiff though. Has anyone ever cut and lengthened the arms of the sway bar that go out to the end links to give more torsional pressure due to leverage. Obviously id have to move the frame mount forward as well.

I haven't but I know it can be done. You could also move the rear mount to the rear a lil bit..
I run the smallest rear bar I can on the rear for street action.

You can also move the axle mounts closer to the diff. It will have the same effect as a smaller bar from what I've read on here.
