Default That's odd... you should never have it "softer" up front, as its more heavy up front

If you want stock like ride, 8/8 was almost stock like (slightly stiffer). I think you'd really like it. Or maybe 6F/8R to make the front a little stiffer to handle the extra weight of the engine.

Default I agree with Haw1144

Need softer settings up front to correct understeer and firmer on the rear to induce oversteer.
