FC Understeering

I'm running into some pretty intense understeer during autocross.

Any easy ways to get the car more neutral without buying parts? I've removed more weight from the rear than the front. That may play a part (I would expect the opposite effect though).

I was running 40 psi all around (street tires), I'm thinking I should try less pressure in the fronts and more in the rear.

Any suggestions?

More camber up front and what you've done so far.

Are you doing this with stock suspension??

if u are all stock , there is a way to rotate the upper spring seat and getting more camber up front that way. less weight will grip better not worse so yes u made the car understeer more then before. try 35 psi in the fron and 28 in the back. if that doesnt give u neutral enouf balance get the K2RD camber link and u might aslo want to get the rear toe bushings from racign beat.
