With regards to an evo, on track IN MY EXPERIENCE, I've not met a well driven one. I'm sure they're out there, I just haven't come across one on track.
I have seen scoobys and evos spin. Fighting the electronics can be worse than no electronics.
Therefore, get yourself on a driving course.

From what I've seen of EVOs on track they just chuck the car sideways all the time into every corner and let the electronics sort it out for them.

He was thinking as all BMW drivers do
"I'm just a regular guy with a regular job, I'm your average white suburbanite slob. I like porno and beer and books about war I've got an average house with a nice hardwood floor."
Does anything surprise about BMW drivers really?!?

i am thinking about modding my car...what would you do first
suspension? or allow the car to breath better by upgrading with induction kits , mainfold and exhaust?

i've heard about this final drive so would you need to change anything else or just that final drive gear? what happens to the top speed???
o another thing ppl tend to go for the aem and k&n filters...
it is said the engine works best with cold air and is compressed in the box which all Ss have as standard, the standard airbox i mean...AEM HKS and K&N all expose the filter to the warm engine area so how would AEM and K&N work better than HKS when they are all opened up to the engine bay???
or am i mistaken?
so mugen would be the best among them all as its a closed closed system... is the Gruppe M one closed?
