Atlanta Pro?

Going in, I had no seat time in the 8, so I guessed at pressures...just went with 40 front, 38 rear. Sunday morning I switched to 35 front, 43 rear and it made a big difference in how the car gripped in the front and rotated...I picked up something like 1.1 secs too after being kinda frustrated on Saturday.
Edit: this was on 275/35 A3S04's

Which single exhaust do you have ? Any power gain ?

I have pretty much always driven lower pressures than most...without cording shoulders prematurely...of course that was on S03's with more static camber but no camber curve
I like the wear I was seeing and had some other, more S04-experienced folks check it out when I was running 38/40...they said it looked good, but maybe go a bit lower
also, Atlanta doesn't exactly have a plethora of grip
of course, it could just be that I drive too slow :D

It took a lot of work to cord a set of S03s on my very camber challenged, strut equipped M3. I think they were tougher in some regards than the S04.
