I'm interested how it feels because I'm currently running 400F/400R (stock sway bars) and I get a lot of understeer and that is with -3.2 camber up front. It feels real fast as I'm able to get on the throttle real early but I think I'm sacrificing corner entry and mid-corner speed.

I know some of you were interested in such setup. I have the 500lb rear springs and I'm debating if I should install them for the next track event.

Only one way to find out; give it a shot. Keep in mind that at static, you'll likely have the rear give out first, so be careful starting, but you may end up liking it. Looser is faster, only if you can manage it.

Do you have a log showing your cornering behavior? If you think you're losing entry/mid corner speed, brake a little less. If you "can't make it", then you're probably already close to the limits of your setup.

You can also try a rear sway instead of the springs.
