Looks like i need to take a look at my front struts. Can anyone recommend a reputable shop in the southeast in case i decide to do a suspension overhaul?

So what do you think would give you more front downforce? A beatrush undertray diffuser or a front lip?

Check your suspension. A stock evo shouldnt feel that way. Masking a bad suspension component by installing an aftermarket part is not the best way to go about it.

are you not mechanically inclined to do minor inspections yourself? its rather simple. just check for leaks, check that everything is properly bolted down and tighten. as many of us have suggest that a stock evo should not feel the way you described. figure out whats wrong first before masking the problem by adding parts.

I'd look over your current suspension, not cover up and issue with additional parts. Having lightness at 80mph is not normal
