1) Wrong forum
2) Worst possible choice you could make with your suspension
3) Worst possible springs
4) You'll blow your shocks
5) You'll WORSEN the handling
6) We don't do "camber kits" on the Evo

Then your shocks haven't blown yet, you never drive on imperfect roads, and you never drive the car hard except for in a straight line.

I've had s-techs on both my evos. I like the stance it gives the car. Both have been on stock shocks, both have been driven on bumpy roads, bad roads, snow, ect. and nothing really to complain about, but they do eventually get squicky. Dont get them if you plan to track your car frequently though, they were not made so much for out right performance as much as for styling and about equal handling as stock.
