Crap roads, a curb to get into my driveway, and around 1k in ground effects that i would prefer not to destory and wheels with a massive offset that rub on rolled and pulled quarter panels when launching if its any lower. Take your pick. Car also spent a month and a half on jackstands on all four corners as well. So the suspension needs to resettle.

What is your plan for the EvO. Will you be tracking it hard like years ago, or are you considering it just a hard core streeter?
Maybe both?
For me, I was working the Fontana track hard (at least i thought so) but the cost, risk factors & the overall condition of the car made me move it off the track. Been cleaning mine up & enjoying the increasing value of the EvO (could sell it for what I paid for it 10 years ago
Just had RRE do my 60K service & had the S2's installed w/the FP HTA71 (runs good & idles sweet)

Joe
what’s up joe! I’ll be tracking but not quite as often as I used to because of work. Maybe 6 track days or so per year and some light street duty of 5-10k miles per year. I’m way upside down compared to what I’ve put into the evo so resale value isn’t even taken into consideration haha how are you liking the s2’s?
The S2's rumble for sure. Its just a little softer on the bottom & requires just a bit more rev & clutch slip in 1st. My tune has my setup limited to 7500 RPM but, for sure, there is more power up top
You probably want to re-think that Moroso pan. Since you've been away we realized it's really good for drag Gs but not lateral Gs. There are other options out now that you should look into like the RaceFab.
I didn't know Mil.spec was porting o2 housings now. I couldn't find it on their site is this a local hook up or something?
