Others have said that the 2002 SE and GLE now has the same suspension, but the SE has stiffer roll bars.

Nothing (I'm sure the SE has stiffer things) but...

They're both oversprung and underdamped

yeah, and the GLE is even softer...but it lacks the complaince of a soft suspension as the car can be jarring over large bumps like the way true sports suspension can be...the worst of both worlds...

So, how do I...

I've been driving a rental 02 SE for the last week, and I like it. Alot. I notice no difference in straitaways, but the SE is a blast in turns. What can I do to my 02 GLE to make it stay as level in turns as the SE.
