Body Roll on 03 Evo

Hey all, I was driving behind a porsche carrera S, and I was having a hard time keeping up with that car. Could be my driving skills, but I felt my car was leaning a lot during the twisties, and the guy's porsche was planted on the ground with no lean. What can I do to my car to help decrease the body roll? Any suggestions will be great.

Loose weight.

No suprise on the outcome. SportCompact Car did a test on Evo vs Carrera S, M3 Audi S4 and the Porche won on the road course, Evo a close second.

I had good luck with the RRE tuned JIC coilover suspension. If you aren't wanting to get that involved with it sway bars would certainly help.

try larger sway bars front and rear with a reat srtut tower brace and a RMR lower brace. this will reduce body roll....

Bump

Anyone know where in Chicago I can get my suspension tuned/tweaked if I get the bars and coilovers? I felt so sad my ride couldnt perform as well as the porsche. I guess Im modding the suspension before power!

Carrera S's are slow. Hate to say it, but it must have been the driving skills.
