And DAMN can that thing handle..

I took a 270 degree on ramp last nigh at 50mph and only at the end where the turn tightened I felt the rear start to slide out, I didn't push it harder because I didn't know if it was prone to understeer, especially since it's cold. I'm afraid that if I tightened up the rear more it would want to come out more. The car is very neutral, for the hard turns I've taken, both slow and fast, I haven't been afraid of the car doing something I wasn't expecting.

Stock, EVO's are setup to understeer. Scheides' tackles the corners quite nice with the bar; a slight bit of oversteer with much less bodyroll.

Wow! Congrats Matt!
I might be jumping on the bandwagon soon too.... :D
Well Matt you can now claim that you own the red whale & the black shark in this picture since both look stockish besides a few minor details.

Today I took a 15 mph 90 degree turn at ~40mph. It was a right hander on a 2 lane road and I entered the turn from my lane. At the apex the rear slid out all while I was expecting the front to start pushing, but that never happened. A slight counter steer corrected it and I kept on my way. I'm assuming the cold temperature played a factor, but this being the second time I've gotten the rear to slide I can't imagine wanting to stiffen up the rear suspension anymore.
