Default Adjustable LCA options

I am thinking of adding some adjustable LCAs to my 997 C2S. I feel like the car could really benefit from more front camber and I am thinking at 57k miles mine are likely worn. What are all of the options and what are the + and - of each? I can find the following:

1.) OEM GT3
2.) RSS
3.) Elephant Racing
4.) TPC

5. GMG
6. BBi

(if you are going to DIY cool but if you are going to go to a suspension guru, they are really picky about what parts are selected in all cases I have experienced with suspension wizards, so I would ask).

Are the RSS just for lowered cars? Every one that I look at says “for lowered cars only”.

GMG seems to be just the bushings that will allow caster adjustments but not camber, you would still need GT3 control arms. The BBi look pretty sweet, I would wonder how they are on the street.

I am doing it all myself.

My car is pretty close to stock S sport suspension height even though it's on Damptronics. Don't see why they would only work on lowered cars as they also have various bushing configurations depending on what you're trying to achieve.

Maybe shoot Mike at RSS a note and ask. Sometimes he checks in here when notified that RSS has been mentioned in a post (he may have a Google notification setup).

I have the ERP Pro series control arms. Different style from stock but infinitely adjustable. Some drawbacks, but really excellent stuff.

Talked with Mike from RSS and they do work with PASM cars not base suspension cars. I am thinking I will go that route because I have their mounts and really like them.
