I'll be the first to take one if they will Give it to me!!!! I want an Evo, no matter what Edition it is!!! I can be a rolling advertisment. I drive around the country and to plenty of car shows and meets.

Buschur Power all the way(a company who like me is never satisfied with what has been done and trying to get to the next level).
Stage 3 Head, AEM EMS, Stage V BR 580 (or 500 depends on the track) turbo, custom exhaust manifold for spool and space optimizations...see BIG PWR radiator below. (Ron Shearer through the BR "skunk works" network)
except for the exhaust manifold everything is STRAIGHT OFF DAVIDS SHELF including the Magnus manifold (early one mega light doesn't like the 35 psi I push sometimes, new one already redesigned and should solve these issues NO WARRANTY ISSUES magnus said box it up I'll send a new one tommorrow)..no special parts hell David sent me lots of used stuff to keep me in tire/entry fee money!
Suspension, DMS 50's +DMS camberplates Road Race "tarmack" after all the testing we have a "Robi" spring/valving setup that should please most people. (these have progressive springs and independant bump and rebound settings, better ride than stock on the street drop the bump to make 'em cushy and MEGA fast at the track...)
25mm rear bar Stock front (this might change currently testing heavier front sway and even heavier rear bar)
WhiteLine steering presision and anti-bump steer kits.
Enkei 17X9.5 +44 NTO3-M (needs spacers/wheel adaptors)
Toyo RA1's and or Trampio 888 255 through 275 depending on the conditions
GT Fabrications Wide front fender kit
NIN FRP doors
C_WEST front bumper
RRM/Carbontrix hood and headlight shields
LOTS of GREDDY gauges LMAOROF (6+A/F)
Sparco Evo 2 seats Steering Wheel, and racing harnesses
RRE MEGA Fuel pump system.
PWR BIG radiator, steering fluid,and oil coolers.
APR GT 200 wing, GP mirrors, Splitter (for the C-west nose, radiator cooling plate, cam gead cover, Carbon Fiber intake piping, and carbon fiber Cold Air Box.
Chassies lightened and stiffened (got all my own products here now)
Finish Line West 6 point weld in cage
MR roof panel
GOT LOTS of projects going this is a work in progress and there is still LOTS of weight to take off

As I read back through this post I see that one of the most supportive sponsors has a lower profile. RRE has been willing and able to custom fab parts provide solutions to nagging problems introduce me to potential sponsors and kick me in the A** as needed to keep this project going. Their support is one of the keys to the success of this project. (and they are nice people too!). I wish they had more "parts" on the shelf from the many solutions they developed for my EVO...because everything they have done like the other parts developed from other sponsors has been "robi tested" and survived.

It's funny but for streets every corner of the car has different Bump and rebound settings to optimize traction and midcorner speed I have a total of 4 test days on the EVOM shootout course and every day we went faster with better control. DMS worked directly with us and supplied support personel for the event...now that's a company who has an interest in our market!
With the current spring rates your running, would you run those delicous DMS 50 tarmac struts on a daily driver?
