I found the difference between 6 degrees and anything 7 or higher pretty noticeable, in terms of steering self-centering force and the jacking up of the inside rear in tighter corners due to the cutting effect if I turned the wheel too much. The difference between 6 and 6.5 degrees maybe not so much.

For me, I'd prefer to keep the camber and dial back the caster, but I don't run as much camber as you (3.8), so I haven't found it to affect braking performance enough for me to want to dial it back.

In any case, good luck man -- I hope you can sort out this understeer issue.
