I know what you mean by you saying it feels faster. I have a beater that I drive to work and when I would drive the EVO on the weekends, it felt fast as hell everytime.

Drives like new. Kadel auto body fixed the damage then they took it to mitsu and had them look everything over, no vibration, shakes or suspension problems. Basicaly what happend is i lost control in the rain and went into the curb, and yes i should of used those brembos a little more.

Kadels does great work from what I've seen. Our brand new '06 BMW 5-series project car was hit by rocks thrown from an overpass during break-in and had major paint scratches across the entire front of the car, including the roof. When it got back from Kadels it looked just like new again.

Modded is definitely better More fun anyway! You're in luck, we just released an entire line of Evo parts that were designed and built on my car. Links to each is in my signature and you can see the thread on the exhaust system HERE Look forward to meeting you.

I got hit by a truck that ran a stop sign and my car sat at a body shop for 3 1/2 months. It takes forever to get the parts. Then when I got it back it seemed super fast and you also really realize how nice the suspension is compared to other cars.
