Default Allignment specs

HI guys
I have a standard 04 Euro turbo
these are my current allignment specs.

The car is a weekender and am about to have my first track day.
It will be interesting to see what you guys are running.

Default specs

seems fine for a daily driver. If you want to be faster through the turns, you will need to add camber. Much like the previous post -2 to -3 up front and -2.5 in the rear. But, you need adjustable lower control arms to get there. RSS makes really nice ones but the are not cheap, and you will a.) wear out tires faster on the street, and b.) be a little "darty" in when driving on roads with troughs from truckers.

It's all a matter of whether you want to optimize for the street or the track or some hybrid that is not best at either.

I went for the track setup as I only drive the car around town on weekends, and I can tell you that camber makes a huge difference in how the car handle in the corners on the track.
