Stock is very similar, save for a 3.0* HRC toe block. Really seems to let the car rotate around corners better.

The added weight of the brass kick shim should help get some steering back into this thing but as it sits now, it's a little lazy feeling. Confidence inspiring but I have to change my lines up in order to get back on the power sooner. Any tips to get some more mid corner and on-power exit steering?

Thanks!
Few things you can try

Stiffer rear spring
Add more travel limiters to front shocks
Add more anti squat
Add washers to inside front ball stud
Add washers to outside rear ball stud
Add some toe-out to front

Edit: try different front or rear tire that will increase front bite and reduce rear bite
