Cornering flatter adjusts the way the car behaves in the corner at the very least. This means that you may feel more confident in the corner, driving closer to 10/10ths but when you hit that upper limit of adhesion - BAM!
So, you may feel more confident and more capable with less pronounced body roll, but I'm not sure it would be enough to raise overall cornering performance. For that, new suspension bits and definitely stickier tires / wider tires are where you want to look.
It's nice to corner flatter (and look cool doing it too!), but swaybars alone on a street car aren't enough to dramatically improve cornering performance.
Someone from the track world please correct me if I'm wrong about this. :)
