No problem, I'm pretty much a n00b too.

I haven't done anything on the rear that will allow me to adjust the camber. There's RCE springs back there and whatever the tolerances are from the subframe assembly/manufacturing process that lead to those measurements.

I do however have some @Whiteline rear LCAs on order. Once they show up I should be able to even out that rear camber.

Buddy let me borrow his gopro for the nats. Here's a video I made while trying to figure out how it works and the proper placement. For reference, I have an aFe dry intake, Invidia N1 cat-back, and Invidia front pipe with a high flow cat. Oh yeah, it is also an auto, but in manual mode FTW!

Borrowed a bud's GoPro. Have videos from the first 2 runs on each day. Just have to edit them and then I'll post the YouTube links.
