Maybe you just need seat time.

30mm stagger isn't helping you, probably a big reason you're understeering, also alignment.

I run 275/285mm tires, I have hotchkis bars and my front bar is full stiff and my rear bar is in the middle (2nd hole)

I'm not running aero or crazy spring rates, or camber.

Something i forgot to mention was tire psi. It was front and rear at 35 hot. Next time ill try to lower both. And have the fronts a little lower.
You definitely want to square off your tires on the car, as was previously mentioned. Going wider all around is just keeping the car right where it was.

I run a square 275-18 setup at the moment, and it's incredible.

All due respect, while you may like where the car is right now, once you go square (or close to it), you probably wont go back at the track with the 370, at least...
