I have an '03 Evo, so adjusting ACD is not an option for me, but ... with stock open front diff, stock suspension, the TRE rear diff completely eliminated any corner exit push. My only other suspension mods the last time I tracked the car were a rear trailing arm bushing and WL rear bumpsteer elimination kit. So, to recap: stock advans, open front diff, stock struts, stock swaybars, stock springs, rear TA bushing, WL BEK + TRE rear diff = neutral car.
I really think that along with the aforementioned bushings, this should be at the top of everyone's suspension mod list ... even before swapping to a bigger rear sway bar.

IMNSHO there is no point in messing with the ACD if you're still running a stock rear diff. The TRE rear diff is the real deal if you're looking to eliminate corner exit understeer. Start with the TRE rear diff, then, if that's not enough for you, think about playing with the ACD.

The TRE rear diff upgrade strengthens the rear diff assembly substantially - as well as giving longer life and improving heat capacity.
The upgrade process should be as follows for an EVO with an open front diff : Front diff > Rear diff > Center diff
The upgrade process should be as follows for an EVO with a stock front LSD : Rear diff > Center diff > Front diff

Mine is still going strong after 2 years. I love the fact that when you make a sharp 1st-gear turn at slow speed (not under load), you hear the rear diff go click-click-click as the clutch plates slide over each other. Let's you know it's still working!
Thanks, Jon, and Merry Xmas!

Gotta love the clicking noises. People look at me like my car is about to break when I am in a parking lot.
