You have enough camber to negate any negative effects from the sway bar, although I'm surprised you can only get -3.2*

IMO, if you really want to help with increase turn-in you should look at setting your alignment with either 0 toe, or a bit of toe out. Obviously some toe-out would be better...but will increase the tire wear on the inner tire.

IMO, in the end you're going to need more tire up front. But IMO some alignment tweaks and a big front bar should help response.
Thanks for your input Kyle.

Wider tires up front means aftermarket rims, which is not in my budget this year.

Will keep your advice in mind during my next alignment.

Will probably go for a stiffer FSB as well.
