To be honest, if you can't figure out which setting is hard and which is soft on AGXs, I wouldn't want to be near you when you try to "kick it out."

i have the sway bar and cant afford the LSD right now and i have gotten it to 35* before when it was just the sway bar. then i lowered it and it wouldnt kick out even when i was fully off the gas. now that i put the AGXs on it steps out a bit but not enough
1 is soft 4 is hard

Try running wider wheels in the front that the rear eg 17x8 in the front and 17x7.5 in the rear, then try running same width tires so that the rear and the front are the same and the rear balloons a bit. this should promote oversteer.

soft/grippy front tires
thinner /over inflated rear tires, preferably used and bald with crappy cracked sun-rotted rubber from your local tire store
Stiff rear bar
no front bar
Stiffest settings on the agx, maybe 4 in the rear and 2 or 3 in the front,
you need alot of power, and the ability to throw your car into a corner at very high speed in order to drift a wrx on dry tarmac. Even with the bum rear tires it wont be easy.
Your basically going to be doing a power over everytime, and then let up a lil on the throttle through the turn to regain traction.

This is a possibility, I think the guy put a pin or something in the tranny to make this happen not sure......but when you do this, there is a very high chance now you will start snapping rear axles because they were not designed to take all the power.
