When changing T-Plates stiffness what characteristics change on the car. Same with the front springs. I have an EVO that I haven't really run much, because I have been more focused on my driving and understanding of the car. If I have time I might do an entry for the EVO this month. The EVO is definitely a faster car but my times on the box stock is faster.
Nice work! Best way to answer tuning questions is trial and error. The effect can be different on different cars, or using t-plates or springs from different manufacturers. Plus its more of a feeling, so hard to describe. Just make one change at a time and test. I take notes as I go, so I don't have to remember. Eventually you'll just know what a car needs...
