Best camber plates for an R52

I need some help deciding what adjustable camber plates to get, can you tell what are the best for the money camber plates.
I liked the IE but the seemed pricey (500 +).
Thanks!,

The IE's are a great set, and they are only $275 a set at http://www.autoxcooper.com/ie_suspension.html

Alan,
I might get some used Helix/RDR or some hotchkis...whatever comes first.
By the way what numbers did you make after the tune?.

I was up 9 HP. Only engine mod was 15% pulley. Have the Magnaflow cat-back now (since I broke the resonator hanger the next day at ECR). I'd say it feels like "half the pulley" again.

The best thing now is that it pulls to 7 grand. I was shifting at 6250-6500. Now I can shift at 6750-7000. Very nice.

See you next month at TWS.

Alan
