considering a trade in
After seeing an evo8 at streets of willow last week I'm really thinking it's a car I'd like to have.
I'll be doing a lot of searching here to find what I'm looking for.
What I'll be looking for is suspension and HP/tq improvement. If I buy an evo it'll primarily be a track car, so I'll be looking for some track setups. Feel free to point me to anything you think might help me out.
Thanks,
Matt

i used to own an rsx-s too, traded it for my evo.

Anyway, the good thing about the EVO is how well it handles out of the box. Stock set-up would be good for most weekend warriors. No doubt for the serious racer it could be improved upon. I think some people have had good results going to a slightly larger rear sway bar. Also I hear good things about the TEIN coil overs. Your gonna pay for em though.
As far as TQ/HP. You may wanna search around the vendor forums. They all seem to have their own philosiphy. Best thing to do is figure out what their offering and decide what works best for you.
