I have to do the drive from DC to El Paso next year. Going to be a loud 3 days with my AMS TBE with test pipe.

I am ordering a bra for the evo now. Poor car hasn't been driven in almost 2 years. I hate to put so many miles on a evo with 20k miles.

While AWD will not help you with braking, it will help with everything else, especially SAWC. And if you can drive defensively, it'll even help you slow down by giving you more room to do so.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully I won't be in Washington very long. I hate cold weather With a passion, me and temperatures below 70 don't get alone.
