Is it just recommended to do it, or did you actually notice a difference during hard acceleration?

My car is a bit of an exception but with a 0* to -1* pinion angle, it would spin the tires any time you were under 90mph. With a -2* pinion angle it hooks all boost levels.

With anything but heim joints you may set the angle at say -1, but during hard acceleration with say urethane bushings, you may end up around +1- +3 due to deflection in the bushings. And lets not get started with rubber bushing deflection..

Its all about the setup.
