Car is still loud at 70-75mph due to stiff suspension and motor mounts, oh well at least the muffler is silent and seems to oversteer enough on the street.

You can fix that issue by adjusting the road wheels in the direction of steering wheel. If it's cocked left, then toe-in the right side, toe-out the left, vice-versa if it's cocked right. If you use equal turns on each side it shouldn't change the combined toe setting. One round on the tie rod is about 3-4 degrees on the steering wheel....roughly. If you need hand with it when you get here, let me know. I have my jack and tools with me.

No worries, I'm used to the steering wheel being slightly off. I was hoping to correct it via strings method, but apparently made it much worse, so short on time just used toe plates to get it down to zero toe (slightly toeing out though). I thought I did equal turn adjustments, but I guess not!
