This! Always get a printout.

For any car you purchase, new or used, checking alignment and tire pressures should be at the top of the list. And obviously for anytime you do suspension work do the same.

I'd try getting an alignment and go from there.
We're just not screaming loud enough.

My evo drifts to the left, but ONLY under acceleration. The harder i accelerate, the more it pulls left. Always left. When i let go of the gas and steering wheel, it goes perfectly straight.

Took it to the dealership: they tell me "All evo's do that."
Yes, some do, when pushing lots of power. Mine shouldn't though.
I'm thinking it's differential damage. Yes, I got an alignment (by the dealership who waited until after i paid for the alignment to tell me that 'all evo's do that')

I'm not saying that this is your case though.
