After readjust we were able to now get to -4.7 on one side and -5.0 on the other, so in classes where the hardware you have to work with is limited, this is probably one of the things to do to maximise your chances.
Your alignment guy is far, far more capable than most!

Be sure to try to re-center as much as you can, and double check thrust angle. Also, check your steering and measure ackerman in addition to caster, as by playing with tolerance, you're introducing a lot of new variables.
