correct me if im wrong, but when a double-a arm suspension is in load it has little to no effect on alignment like camber, etc. unlike the mcphearson setups or the multi-link setups... sooo wouldnt he be right?

just my thoughts...
Not quite sure what u mean by "in load". But double a-arm allows for progressive camber changes, and allows you to tune roll center. both of which mac pherson do not. When you lower a mac pherson equipped car, the roll center falls at a faster rate than the center of gravity, increasing the roll moment which cause the car to lean more in the turns.

Mac pherson = bad for performance.
