Has anyone had the bump-steer mod done on their STI7? Am I in any danger of invalidating the warranty by having it done?

Bump steer mod is unnecessary for STi7 according to Powerstation who carry out bumpsteer mods on the classic shape. However, I would recommend a wheel alignment since all STi7s seen by Powerstation have needed adjustment. The boys at Powerstation have developed both road and track settings for the STi7. On my car alignment wasn't too bad and they basically adjusted the front wheel camber from nothing to 1 deg. It has definately reduced the amount of understeer, but I still get tyre howl when cornering on smooth tarmac. I think it must be the c**p OEM tyres!
