Hello everyone,
I am looking to purchase an evo x very very soon.
I currently drive an 07 mazdaspeed 3 stage 2 with some suspension work. I know power wise the evo x has it all with just a few bolt ons and a tune so im not worried about that. I hear from some x owners that the yaw control is fantastic but when it comes down to quick cornering around mountains the car does not really react to the ways that you are trying to control it due to the yaw feature. How are you guys liking that feature? Would it be better for me to get an STi for those tight quick cornering?

 

^ no. The evo handles a lot better, drive both and see. The Yaw control does do a little bit of weird stuff, but you really just have to trust the car. If you're coming from FWD, I wouldn't worry about it.

 

stock for stock the evo x will out handle the sti. sti's tend to understeer a lot stock.

 

What kind of weird stuff are you talking about?

 

when you're in a corner, a lot of times I expect the car to push and it just doesn't. And, the corrections feel a little strange when you're geting used to them (shifting power to the rear outside wheel)
