How do I get my X to corner?
I have been on evolution.net a short time. On dsm tuners Ground Controls are a very popular upgrade. I was wondering why there is not any converation here? As you know you can adjust the ride hight and chose any spring.

In the case of DSMs (at least the 2Gs, these days), you have a great shock to put the GC sleeves on: namely, Koni Sports. We don't have that option for Evo X -- if we did, I'd already have them -- so a sleeve kits isn't really an option for us.

I beat the crap out of the unfinished ones and these look even beefier. I will try and get some pictures from them. My finished ones are supposed to be here any day.

I have hotchkis front and rear bars with hotchkis rear end links. My front alignment is -2.25 camber, 0 toe. Rear is -1.5 camber and 0 toe.
Recently I got to drive my car back-to-back with a lowered x with no roll center kit at an autocross. Both cars were on the same tires. My car handled considerably better IMHO.
Based on my personal experience, the front and rear roll bars are the single best bang for the buck out there. Install time is about the same as a set of 4 springs. Factor in doing any lowering spring CORRECTLY and using the roll center kit, and the cost of install for springs shoots way up. Plus in my opinion (reasonable minds may vary) you compromise daily driving comfort more with springs than you do with sway bars.
Again for me and my use of the car, sway bars were the right choice.
