I went to slighly less rear toe in, as for me the RFG helped the car accelerate harder and straigher out of corners. ( Running Mod )

In the rear I went to a bit more dampening, and spring then my non RFG setup. I found that the car became more stable then ever before.

I also raised my rear links by 1mm over where I had them with the stock rear end ( remember the RFG links sit lower already) so you will have to a bit of math to get a higher link.

Overall I think my A700 is the best it has been.
yes The RFG produce more traction and stable , but it is still too much rear grip for my taste....yes I also went for more damping and spring in the rear as well..
