as close as i can get it both sides. turn it a touch more and it wont get near. camber is done off top mounts. also the same, change bolt hole and its miles off.

that'll be a negligable difference... its hard to get them exactly the same.
More camber on the fronts if using sticky hardwalled tyred.
As much castor as you can get (strut angled forward)

strut is angled forwards yeah. top mounts are set with the top of the shocker pointing at bulkhead as far as it can and still keeping a bit of camber for now.

I have just under 2 degrees neg camber on mine, which is much better than the standard settings. I did notice an improvement in corner handling.
That looks fine to me.

Surprisingly it would seem not. I'm sure I remember reading in the past that they did and I've even seen sound testers setup around the drift circuit but I've just look on MSV's website and found this for every car trackday listed including ours:
105 dB(A)
Drive-by N/A dB(A)
