To overcome Oversteer/Understeer you have to go through the process of setting up your car right. It's all about balance. Your setup seems OK to me, maybe it's just the driver...
What circuit do you lose control on, what turn?
Lol
M8 pls
Correct terminology is called losing it.
What makes you think he is losing it on the track. Not everyone races on circuit like yourself.

If you lose control on the streets then there are too many factors on why your car would be behaving as such. You can't give accurate answers from normal roads and Circuit when you're testing the ability of your car.
FYI I use to have an Oversteer issue (pretty sure there is a thread about it). Lost control of my car on a Mountain run a long time ago. Afterwards I asked the same sort of questions too. So from my experience, the best way to know your cars real potential (Cornering) is on the circuits.
The main issue of mine was me (Driver). Issues such as, angle of attack, speed, if tires are warm/cold, road surface wet/dry.. etc etc
Lol Bau... I'm no hero on the track. I'm still learning like everyone else here.

That's better.
Your 1st post came across as though you're track hero & putting him down as n00b driver.
Some of this has been covered, here it is anyway....
1. Check your wheel alignment. Don't use toe out on rear if you want stability, keep some amount of toe in (~1.5mm). Neg camber will help too but you probably have some increased neg camber from lowering anyway.
2. You have increased your rear anti-roll bar stiffness and kept original front ARB. This will change the balance to more oversteer tendency than stock.
3. Get better tyres, don't push too hard when they are cold.
If you are talking about losing the rear end on the street then you are driving too hard! Bumpy roads/uneven surfaces combined with stiff rear suspension will upset the rear end and can lead to unpredictable results.
