I don`t know much about this subject.
But You could have a look at some of Blade`s mails or his home page.
Perhaps look into the spec for the Evo VII Extreme versions; the S: roll bar bushes, susp. strut rubber top mounts, steering rack mounts- all changed to Gr N, and revisions to susp. geometry. They don`t say which mods..
Good luck.
I fitted Powerflex front kit to my 6 and it greatly improved the feel of the steering and did not effect the ride at all.
uprate the front wishbones, the steering rack, top mounts and anti-roll bar bushes.
You can get them some from Powerflex, and Grp N from Ralliart/co-ordsport
You will lose any play in the steering wheel, and sloppiness in the wishbones, and generally turn in will improve, feeback and acuracy of steering - as well as keeping the geometry intact on hard cornering.

I have started with ralliart GRpN topmounts and steering along with springs and rear brace. Coorsport also altered the geometry to suit fast road-track.
From what I can gather its a suck it and see excersie...too much and u can make it tiresome on the road but its a personal thing.
Pls let me know what u decide and the results.
PS have u done any engine mods, if so any advice...a lot of the threads seem to concentrate on peak power rather than achieving a truly enjoyable driving experience.
