too much front toe out, will turn quicker. but you lose some stability at high speeds, and chew up tires.

toe out is good for the track sometimes, for a street car you don't need it.

when I was autox the car i ran some toe out, but it made the car a little nervous (darty) above 120MPH.


Go with the settings that solofast recommended.

best of luck
but as we all know the stock alignment configuration is not "neutral" it's set to understeer.
