Most of the alignment settings people have been recommending (zero toe, -2.5 to -3.0 degrees front camber) are aimed at decreasing stock understeer.

I gather from his posts that OP actually wants the opposite:

Stock alignment specs are already fairly conservative (slight toe-in, 0 front camber, -1.0 to -1.5 rear camber). I don't think you can feasibly do a whole lot there.

OP - I think the first step is get rid of the Eagle RS-A tires and replace them with proper performance summer tires (MPSS, RE71R, Z2SS, etc.) I have a feeling that will give you the rear traction you're looking for on exit. If that's not enough, Strano parts makes an affordable front sway bar that will shift the balance of the car more towards understeer (i.e., reduce oversteer).
