Re: My Evo

Nice Matt,

Cant wait for you to get all the improvements in the car, Do you feel you lost or gained in the handing department for auto -x? I will be rocking the stock supension again this year with just the aftermarket rear swaybar, been really happy with the combo so far.

I honestly do not think I'll be any worse off with this setup versus the coilovers. The stock struts have far greater compression and rebound control than the Ksports, and these springs are only slightly softer at their peak. I'm already a firm believer of using stock struts and good aftermarket springs over cheap coilovers. The rear swaybar helps loosen these cars up so much, it's immediate gratification.

As far as autocross goes, who knows. Right now it looks like I'll be codriving a well built Subaru WRX in STX this year.
