Negative Front Camber : Control Amrs vs Camber Plates

I'm looking to get a bit more negative front camber.

I was wondering what are the differences between using camber plates vs adjustable control arms. Are there any benefits/negatives to either setup?

Also, I was told that the 997TT has a nonstandard mount point for the front suspension, so if you wanted to use standard camber plates that work fine on a 997 or cayman/boxster layout you need to get additional hardware. Is this safe for track applications?

I got about -1.5 rear camber and got the adjustable toe links from RSS, so looking to get just above that for my front camber and have the ability to increase it overtime as the need arises. Dont want to go above -2 front initially.

I have CUP or RS front and rear control arms and I think they are better than canberplates since you can get a wider front track and adjust camber in the top,in other words control arms are a more flexible setup.
