-2 degrees of camber is negated when you take a turn, ANY speed btw.
Wait and..... toe out in the right rear??? That's gonna cause some decent oversteer on a left hand turn. I would keep zero or some toe in your case
Toe out is one crazy mother****ing mod to have great effects but only if you can handle it. Unfortunately it aided my cause a few months ago for sure. But did it drive great **** yeah.
Caster difference much? You should be in the mid 3-4 range if i'm not wrong. I was at 7.3/7.2 on my legacy after the PSRS install. I dunno what the bugeye is at with the race whiteline ALK though.

20% is a huge amount. anytime you take a turn you would appreciate even a little bit of negative camber. If you go straight all the time(as in do not take a turn) then by all means roll with 0 and youll be fine. Turn with 0 camber and that will cause more wear. Also whyd you get adjustable camber plates if you arent taking advantage of them. Its like buying a huge turbo and running stock boost.

I'm gonna get a ALK within the next few months to see what I can do. I also adjusted the caster myself by getting the gap as close as I could and I'm taking it in tomorrow morning to see what everything is at and ask them to do everything.

I'm still confused about caster. What's the best caster setting for track/autoX and whats the best for daily driving? I got an alignment a couple weeks ago and my caster was in the 7's. Camber was -1.5 front and -3.2 rear, I need to get rear lateral links to fix the rear. Toe was set at zero.

Caster? On the impreza somewhere in the 4-5 range? I'm not too sure, still new to the impreza platform.
But since you have the new generation I say 7 range, because it should be pretty similar to the BP/BL legacys I was at 7.3 with my caster alk kit.

I would think that more is better since it really takes effect when you turn your wheels. But I've never felt the need for more.
Caster is not usually adjustable unless you have some plates. It looks like the specified range for my car at least (and most likely yours) is 5.2 - 6.7. My actual is 6.1 on the left and 5.8 on the right.
