According to mitsu it is as good as lowering the top of the car 50mm. I don't know about you but that is alot. Just think how stupid the car would look trying to keep the steel roof and just lowering it. I know, I know, kinda a goofy thought....but that is why mitsu did that, and that is why they build things the way they do.
And to just lose weight is not going to be as effective as much as hacking weight at the far edges of the car.
I can't wait to see some of the tests that come back from the magazines on the G forces this car produces in the slolom. I bet people will easily be hitting over G.
But, don't let these morons get to you.

It's all good Favre95 - I expect to see some resentment from current Evo owners who would like to have the new upgrades, but are unable to trade in - I feel your pain Evo brothers
. As well as dumb a** comments from drivers who've never been on a track, or taken their car to the limit, and can't appreciate the benefits of fine tuning a vehicle and experiencing the benefits.If you already have an 03 Evo - you've got a great car! But those of us that push to the limits regularly will sure be loving that new front LSD.
My deposit's down on a MR - can't wait to join the Evo owner's club
