Roll Center Adj. Kit...

My evo has sat fairly low for awhile now and handled like a dream. I've gone even lower now, and have noticed my car no longer has the tenacious grip it once had...

To be completely specific, the car turns in just as crisp as it always has, but begins to scrub some grip away at apex. I have to wait to get back to throttle longer than I'd like to because the car just isn't pointed in the right direction from the apex-off.

I just read that once the control arms reach a certain angle to the rest of the suspension, the car gets a tendency to push again.

Can anyone who has a roll center adjustment kit tell me if it will solve my dilemma?

Yes it will bunker.

Basically when you over lower your car on the stock geometry the lower A- Arms are actually bending upwards if you view them from underneath, kills the geometry on the front end, it will help !
