Thank you Namer for further pushing the development on the Yaris. :)

You still need a CAI, though!

Gotta make sure I can get power down before I turn power up

Getting the car ready for the race this weekend, will have a better idea on how it works when everything is said and done.

First test is in...and I don't know how to drive the car now.

Biggest thing that comes away from this to me is I can trail brake now, the car doesn't want to get loose on liftoff, so it doesn't rotate all that well. Not a bad thing but something I kept finding myself anticipating but never happening.

Overall it behaves like driving a RWD mcstrut car, on lift off or braking it doesn't want to turn but power down it turns in really really nicely, I think part of that is springs but I don't know what else to attribute it too. I can mat it wherever I want now, the inside tire will not spin on anything aside from a clutch dump. Its going to take some relearning of the car but I think its working exactly like I wanted it too. I need to play with the springs again but the rates I was running were fairly close to what would be a good match.(Thanks again Jason)

The suspension video is really cool to watch and a touch disappointing as well since I don't have wide enough rims.
