No issue with that
Jaffa is on exactly that
Some aligners are protective of "their" settings
Contact a few and see what they can offer
Ray @ Daytona (Dayton Dave on here) did a great job of mine

Its different to the stock alignment because that is unsuitable for over 30mph



Everyone has preferences, stability, slidiness etc. Ray did my SC S and he knows the cars and is a top bloke, equally i had a local guy do the NA one and we just talked about what i wanted and perceived issues and he also got me a result. Probably the key is balancing up the car and removing wildly out settings

Edit to ask how low is it?

Just seen it thrown around, as in one that is more aggressive than a daily as mines only for the summer months.

Thanks, will probably have to go with the latter and hope they've got experience and knowledge.

Off hand it's 25mm and 30mm drop. Nothing too outrageous to be honest. Got them, pro allign kit and and arbs
