The best setup for autocross on very small tracks

Don't agree with the springs remark. Spring ratio is related to the maximum possible cornering force and the need to controll camber accordingly. Maximum cornering force is related to the tires traction limit not just speed. Professional autoX setups have astronomic rates, starting around 7/4 and upward.
I would start with the std car, then upgrade tires (most important factor by far, a set of 235-45-13 AVON ACB10's is nice). Choose spring rates high enough to controll the tires grip and upgrade the rest when needed.
