run a search on differences... but EB is such a cool color... I'd def. want that over BBY

One of the biggest diff.s is the turbo hotside.

I suggest doing several searches....sounds like you are still a bit in the dark on the Evo as a whole. Just friendly advise.

it is the exhuast side housing. the 05 have a 10.5 whereas the earlier ones had a 9.8. so quicker spool and more flow

you also have the active center diff and limited slip front diff in the 05's (the 04 RS also has a l-s front diff, but wasn't available in BBY).

makes a significant difference. with the acd on "gravel" on a wet road you can push the car very hard and it will step the rear just enough to turn in. on "tarmac" on a wet road the *** is always trying to pass the front (stepping out a lot) when pushing hard. Haven't played in the snow yet so don't know how that one feels. IMO the IC spray is a waste unless you are doing prolonged hot lapping and throughly heat soaking the intercooler.

YMMV,

Greg

Honestly, who actually thinks the IC sprayer does anything? Mine's been turned on once; made no difference and has never been turned on again.
