If you use the relocation brackets and move the LCA down, you get roll OVERsteer, not UNDERsteer. I can tell a huge difference between the upper and lower holes on my J&M relocation brackets. On the lower hole, I can do power slides with very little throttle addition when cornering at the limit. With the upper hole, it takes much more throttle to get the rear to come out. The only way you will feel the difference is if you take corners at the limit of grip. I also have sway bars which are set to full stiff in the rear which add to the oversteer condition. Your car may still have so much understeer from the stock setup that the lca relocation won't be noticeable to you. Just beware, oversteer is hard to control especially if you don't expect it. Understeer is much easier to control which is why manufactures design cars with tons of understeer from the factory.
