How much camber for my FD?

How much camber would be good for autocrossing but mostly road racing? Like I said in the title this is for my FD, all suspension is stock for now except the wheels which are Enkei NT03+M 17x9.5 +44 with 255/40/17 Falken RT-615s. Any suggestions?

Have you ever tracked this or any other cars before?

Some good starting specs: 1.2 to 1.3 deg camber front, 1.0 to 1.1 deg camber rear, 6-7 deg caster up front, 1/16" toe-in front and rear

Take the car to a performance shop, not Midas or similar.....if they don't regularly setup track cars, move on...

Great. You'll have a lot of fun.

Rynberg's numbers should get you started.
