I think I have a good one. I set it up on the Top Gear track and it consistently pulls 1:08s and has been as fast as 1:07. Will trade setup for a car....

Just a question. Why did you decide not to do the race mod on the evo IX? im considering it. Is there a downside I dont know about?

No downside from which I know of, I just own an Apex Silver Evo and wanted to keep it real lol... For now atleast :)
 
Torque Sensing Center Diff.
Power split = Front 35 Rear 65

Change this to: Front 30 Rear 70 and you will have much better steering on and off power! You can even try 25 F 75 R or more!

BTW, your back end suspension settings look stiff to me!

Will have to try that out, althought the thought process was to allow the fronts to pull the car around a corner but I could be wrong hehe... And yeah the rear is stiff to counter the serious understeer the car has stock. Thanks for the info though!!!!
 
Have you tried this with a Race Mod version? I am going to build a Evo with the Race Mod (You can paint it any color you want after the Mod) and was wondering if anybody has tried this tune with it.
 
I just spent a half hour trying to dial out the understeer in my Evo IX before I realized that equipping the adjustable LSD disables the AYC controller. Switched back to AYC and cranked the setting up, seems to drive much better now.

Good man 👍

AYC's only pitfall is for those that use a wheel is it WILL NOT drive in a straight line and it's not particularly good for traction.
 
Anyone had the chance to test out my tune yet?
