Bump steer/roll reduction kits are intended for lowered cars....
Hurry up and lower it already!!
Whiteline RCK FTW. I just got mine. Also go the ALK too. That will help the front end feel solid and glued to the road. Also steering bush kit makes a difference. Of course after new springs.

The mob who fitted, balanced and alligned my new tyres/wheels filled the up to 40psi all around and they have stayed there ever since (6-7 months).
They feel good to drive on too.

Problem solvered, Didn't know tyre pressures made such a different (well it does with a push bike so it must in a car)
Pumped them up to 38 all round (cold) and when for a quick drive on the freeway this morning, Much more stable and no twitchyness like i was experiencing before 
I'm sure suspension mods would help a lot too, But i'm all for quick, cheap and easy fixes

Aren't we all!?
But yeah, I've found t/press can make a fair diff to handling, keep experimenting with different pressures to find what works best for you.

Fixed all my problems with :
Cusco coilover kit.
Whiteline racing ALK.
lower control arm brace.
front strut brace.
and still to go in front and rear swaybars + links + rear lower control arm brace.
And yes tyre pressure does make a dramatic difference, Everyday driving my normal pressure is about 38psi cold. When hitting the twisties I set them about 34psi for some MAX FANGING GRIP.
