They were saying reduced performance was also true of an upper rear strut brace (if it wasn't in a post, I emailed them about it before I ordered from them). In addition, you lose most of your trunk space with a rear upper and you have to cut apart the trunk interior carpeting, if things like that are a concern.
Are rear lower braces worth a damn? How hard would they be to install.

To keep this on topic: another rear sway bar would be nice. We like options
And that ILP short shifter would be VERY cool for the Lancer, esp at $100 with bushings.

parts I whant

I would like to see camber and caster plats to fit in the stock location eliminating that thick ruber bushing gaining use some more shock travel and more adjustability . And will some one please go through the motions to get a CARB # for a header taking off the header every other year has got to be a ***** not to mention the cost of a ticket if you get busted with it on the car . I would like a front air splirt like the one on the BMW M cars or the Audis on speed vision

another small thing
how about some little color coded plugs to fill misc. holes
like where the front plate goes and the middle of the trunk for those who have replaced the orig. spoiler with a EVO 7 one or for anyplace where you need to cover a ugly hole

Color coded body plugs? Uhm...no? Bondo, paint and a body shop. It'd look awful anyway. In addition to my previous list, need to see a lightweight billet camshaft (weight off valvetrain=good thing) and valves. That and a vernier cam gear that has some super hard precision teeth with precision timing advance markings and non slipping lock nuts.

ILP should NOT be concerned with a new cat-back, intake, or headers. EVERYONE wants turbo, why make headers? I say, offer us products that we can't get because they're overseas. Either give us CAMSHAFTS and CAMGEARS, or give us some new headlights and grills.

Evo 7 Taillights for Evo 8 owners.

My first mod will be replacing those ugly altezza lights on my 8 so please have some evo 7 lights. I'm sure i'm not the only one who will be making this request.

Why don't you just buy stock lights from a VII? I'd be willing to bet they'd fit without body modification (Maybe wiring at most).

Eh...too many show mod requests for my taste.

Jeff, needless to say I'm all for a turbo kit with no corners cut. Swappable parts/options like BoVs, external wastegates, turbos, and possibly choices for engine management would be cool too so that the buyer could spend the bare minimum or go hog wild, but I don't think a setup like that will be cheap...ever. Not to mention it probably wouldn't be as simple to install as say the RRM kit, but then again installing a turbo setup is probably not the best thing for an inexperienced tuner.

Especially with carbon fiber and boost I'm a firm believer that you get what you pay for.

Agreed. Don't quite understand wanting an entire Evo Whatever Number style body kit when they could've got a late model Mirage and had much more success. Another nice component to see would be adjustable camber plates.
