Hard to tell, what's the surface, and what do you prefer?
Stock is 5-7-2 I believe, if you want more on power steering try 7-7-2. Increase weight in the rear if the surface is loose.
Mine is setup for snow and ice, I currently run 5-5-5, seems ok, quite neutral.
Combined with 30 front susp with progressive soft springs and 25 rear with long soft springs.
On dry track I've been happy with 5-7-2, stock springs and 40-35 damper oil. This is quite safe to start with.

My MBX5 - prospec - updated to R+

Parts of my track, last spring:


Last pic also shows my brother trying to break his old X1CRT-rtr.
Setups I've told works on this track, cant't promise same results on yours
