Agree with Brom - totally depends on how you want your car to be.
Do you want it to turn in mint or be stable on straights etc etc.
The feedback can only come from you and how YOU like it to drive or what suits your driving style etc.
People can offer a basic setting on how there's is set up but that may be total bollx for what you want
Get it out on a trackday and start playing..... its the only way

Broms Totally Right , you need a datum point to set Zero ! I hope he wont mind me offering , but if you book a local trackday i'll sort the handling based on your feedback unless you book a full geometry at Zoo . Setting these things up isn't something you can do by asking one question on the internet , its what testing is for !

Factory settings from a 4x4 fiesta though guys 
Find a decent specialist - buy some books so you know how to explain what the car is doing or what you want it do and BOB's ya uncle..
I have mine to turn in more than a standard mk2 but this does loose some straight line stability - but as its wider on the back than the front this appears to help and its very hard to notice
