If I add kick up I will gain mid steering and some part on exit but will I lose some steering on entry? What's the first adjustment to make? add rear droop or soften the front?

Btw, base set up is the stock setup on the FK05 manual.

Thanks in advance.

A:your creating anti dive= reduced off power steering
:short link= Less roll= flater through corners/ less cornering grip
B:kickup= less off power st/ more on power st and generally more stable
:long link= more roll/ more cornering grip
to get back the off power steering you lost, reducing droop in the car(more on the gauge) , but if you are running soft springs chances are it will be too soft and the chassis may scrape due to the extra roll from the camber link change.

hope this helps
