I've had a search for this, when you fit a strut brace, should you tension the adjuster to push the tops of the struts outwards or inwards.

I've adjusted mine to push outwards to counteract the effect of cornering, but was wondering if I adjusted it to pull in, would it give me some extra camber on the front?

If you get more noticeable camber by pulling in the strut brace there is something very wrong with your car.
