Good job Rick and Navid.
Any changes to last years set-up Rick? C'mon, you can tell us. I'll see you at Heartland Park. Good luck for the rest of the series.
Navid, it will be interesting to see you and Eric compete. Any word on Mark? How about Andy or John? They have not registered at any events yet.

There were a couple of pretty good threads on ESP/SM buildup a while back. Wish they had gotten stickyed because I'm having trouble thinking of good enough search terms to look for them...

But I'll try to give a basic rundown. FYI, 285's will no longer cut it.
315's
Ohlins R&T
Xede with smart contol
I'd defitnely recommend replacing all the diffs. Not sure if there is an option for the center diff though.
You will need to up the spring rate to keep the fenders off the tires (I'm sure you know this) or just hack away. I'd start with an RS model as it alreadys has some weight reduction done. Again, you should know the rest.
Daddio has some good info in his thread here as well.

To add:
No Xede/Smart for the IX, yet. I'm just guessing, but Andy might have the ECU worked on by a certain CA. company until Vishnu offers the Xede (Xflash is an option though).
There are a few manufacturers of center diffs on the market (Cusco, Ralliart, etc., Not sure about ACD compatibility).
Spring rates are already stiff. I'd say 900/1200 lbs.
315's?
Ohlins, definitely!
How about: Header, dp, exhaust, bushings, sway bar, etc. (Possibly from a supporting sponser?)
Maybe Navid can give us a hint on his combination.

No clue on the diff, good to know there are options.
Agreed on the rates.
yes 315's, a certain east coast STi will be running them this year.
Knowing James, I'm assuming he knows all the basics like exhaust and bars, etc.

Sounds to me like the Ralliart ECU for the ACD would be good. Anyone have a work around for making those work on the US cars yet?
Rear diff may be worth worrying about -- which one works best in the tight radius AX application?
Front diff seems like it would not be worth the trouble, but could be.
Full exhaust and possibly headers are a given.
ECU and some way to switch from 91 Octane maps to 100 Octane map is a must.
Lose weight everywhere you can.
What about people's choices for spring rates?
Ride Height?
Alignment specs?
Anyone make a nice flare for the Evo? 315s would be nice, but may make the car too wide. I wonder if you could do a 315 front and 275 rear?
Has anyone looked into putting the ABS on the Evo IX RS?
