incoming spanner....

obviously my experience is from the S4 but I believe this option is universal between the 2.

front shock location on wishbone...

outside is safe and has mid-corner push.
inside keeps the car hooked up in the middle of the turn.

keeping the droop the same between these settings keeps similar on power steering, I find that letting the front droop more give you MORE on power response. (this is when using a one-way-diff. I never use anything different)

so I find if I want to make the car drive more from the front on-power I give it a slight bit more droop on the front than the rear.

typically I use axles level with chassis as a base setting for droop all round, a touch more on the front if I want the drive from the front feel.

also - if Lowe runs a one-way-diff and you don't thats where your heavy push comes from, especially on power.
you could try and tighten up your front diff, but you might loose turn-in
