The alignment is roughed in for now and I'll schedule a precision alignment ASAP.
The big takeaway from the shake-down test drive is the incredible precision from going from rubber strut mounts to spherical bearing strut mounts. I forgot how impressive they feel, and it's amplified with the incredible front-end grip the 1LE has. A huge improvement in telepathy. No tangible increase in NVH either, impressive.
Another thing to keep in mind is with less flexible strut mounts, the dynamic camber loss is reduced. This means that less static camber is needed to achieve the same dynamic camber. I'll get the alignment dialed in where I *think* it should be close, but next track day I'll also do IR gun measurements and see how close my estimate was.

It's always that, isn't it ?
Any change in the front suspension height? My friend mentioned that these add some height to the fronts and change the rake a little bit
I also would like to hear your opinion on DSC after the adjustments. Thanks for the sharing
