Removing the ARB will soften up the front end and give you a little more body-roll.. Thats it

tight bends it tends to premote understeer, lifting the inside wheel.
sweeping bends you'll need it though

Removing the front ARB gives you more front end grip actually, not so good on high speed corners though.
