The biggest tangible improvement is that when you are too deep in a tight turn and haul the wheel over, the outside front wheel bites better. More caster leads to more dynamic camber, I think it's called.

I don't notice the actual "anti-lift" part of it as much, but I'll have a few more HP soon, so I'll see then.

I think it is a better deal to go with the STi group-N front LCA frame bushings. They are available separate from the kit through Cobb Tuning for $100 or so, not a bad price for getting rid of the stock liquid-filled front LCA bushings. I would venture to say that the Whiteline bushings are really no more stiff than the hardened rubber ones in the STi bushings. They are REALLY hard rubber! I was happy with the purchase myself...

Plus, this way you are not defeating the suspension geometry designed by engineers at Subaru...

I think this is on my roster to put on this weekend. I've had them sitting in my garage for quite some time now, plus I'll have added a few more horsies at that point too.

DigDug, you have to remember that Subaru rarely (if ever) changes things. No super-geometry hero designed those stock bushings to perfection. Suspension upgrades on the RS are a very worthwile thing!
