i believe the kit standard setup for a b4 would be 2 degrees

on my x6 with no shims its 4 degrees
Sorry to argue but over the years, I have found anti-squat makes no difference is side bit at all or how a car jumps. My general rule is zero anti-squat on a flat track and more anti-squat if accelarating through bumpy sections. If off the power through bumpy sections then no need to adjust from the zero point. Like I said I have never noticed a difference in side bite....
