The SAI is used to change the scrub radius without changing the camber or the wheel offset.
Oversimplifying things:
FWD cars have different requirements for scrub radius because the steering wheels are also the drive wheels and the wheel torque can cause torque steer. The intersect point of the SAI and the ground is sometimes on the other side of the centerline of the tire than it would be on a RWD car.
Plot the scrub radius of the original wheels, then calculate a new SAI for the new wheels with the same scrub radius. Or you could just live with the change. People do it all the time.
I was gonna type this out yesterday but got caught up with something else. I was also gonna ask if it was a real SHOgun or a clone.
