I seem to remember the standard bars are the same bars as used in the GT3 cup cars.

Maybe. I just ordered one. The cars do have a lot of flex still. The Cup car has a much stronger front tub structure (GT3/C4 style), plus "additional material" at the suspension pickup points and some of the cross plates. Think of it this way... it can't hurt, but probably won't help if you are not on slicks with a race suspension.
