Thanks again guys for all the nice comments. I appreciate it. Gonna install my M2's and BC valve springs and retainers here in the next month or so and will hopefully be around 390 whp on the stock 8 turbo. I'll be dynoing my current setup this Saturday and will post my dyno graph.

I dropped it that way so that the car's frame would actually sit level vs the forward pitch everyone else seems to have on their evos. And although it might look a little wierd with the back looking lower than the front, it's made a huge difference on the road in terms of handling.

I accidently hit a patch of ice on the highway the other day and got the car sideways at 85 mph and it stuck to the road like glue. I was suprised how well it handled and am thankful I'm alive today to talk about it. No fun counter steering 5 times back and forth at 85 mph to get your car under control. Thought I was dead but the evo pulled through and kept me alive. BTW I also have to give credit to the Falken Ziex 512's they are incredible tires

Installed the M2 Cams and Brian Crower Valve Springs and Retainers a few weeks ago and the results are less low end but more top end power. My first gear isn't as explosive as it use to be, but my 2nd and 3rd gears really rip now. Cars accelertion feels a lot smoother than before. Only issue is city driving has become more of a headache since these cams really don't like pushing the car at really low rpms. All in all I like the new setup and looking forward to the day I get my FP Red.
