installing springs question

i know that there is a red dot bolt on the front suspension and i was told to make sure that it does in the right way. ill doing spring install this week and was wondering if the red dot bolt have a specific way the red dot should be sitting or is it just put it back how u took it out, like does the dot have to be pointed down or pointed up?

Install it the same way as before for the same (low) amount of camber. Flip it for an extra degree. It must point in or out, not up or down.

I installed mine this weekend & was wondering what the difference was if it was flipped. Good to know!

Dot in = original setting = about -1* camber
Dot out = "special" setting (Mitsu would never say "racing" because then they couldn't deny warranty work if we go racing) = about -2* camber
