You'll probably want to get some more negative camber in the rear as well, although this isn't quite as inexpensive.

If you don't have an oil cooler already, I'd recommend one for track duty. Many options are available.

You're correct, it can make the rear break loose easier, since you have better contact patch in the front, but you also have to remember that camber doesn't affect the spring balance of the car, which stock, is biased toward understeer at terminal speeds (but can easily be upset, causing oversteer).

Thanks for the input Mike. Yes I do have an oil cooler, I bought it from you (CSG) with my Jackson racing supercharger.

I should be good to go with this setup, I will update this after my track day.

Is there any reason not to leave the front at -3 camber for the street?
