Good news, crix... but don't you have AYC? Here's how to check...

ok chassis code is rs2 thats how mr pinherio and i figured it out.. also the fact that the turbo is a 16g hra 9.8t. that was the hint to check the chassis code.

the rs2 from my understaning does come with ayc and a rs turbo and it came with alll teh luxury features as teh gsr

The new car's transmission is were most of the changes took place. The fully equipped GSR/RS-2 version sports a TorSen front and an Active Yaw Control rear differential as previously but the center differential is now an "active" ACD differential that varies its locking characteristic according to inputs from accelerometers and other sensors. One typical "active" strategy it applies is to stiffen its locking when the car starts negotiating a corner (the braking phase) allowing for maximum deceleration, loosen the locking to negotiate the turn-in phase, stiffen a bit mid-corner allowing more torque to the rear in order to turn more easily and stiffen even more while exiting the corner to provide the maximum grip and acceleration.

^ ^ ^ Hi Dave. I'm adding to an OLD thread but this should help to identify which diff your Evo has...
As a general rule, here's the alloy AYC rear diff used in GSR and MR models...

And here's the cast-iron clutch-type rear LSD from RS and Evo 6 RS2 models...

It seems that the Evo 7 RS2 and Evo 8 RS2 does have a rear AYC... as well as the ACD found in "late" Evo 7 through Evo 9 models.

^ ^ ^ Yup, that and the GT's Bilsteins are the main reasons why it's the only model of E7-E9 that I like.
If it was 286 lbs. lighter and 13/4" lower then it would be nearly perfect... just like an Evo 6 RS. Laughing

lol I was just teasing Crix
The Evo series is one of the greatest lines ever to emerge IMO
Supercar performance AND room for your three best friends, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND room for a few cases of Stag!!!
If I had my way, I'd have an Evo IV and VII in my garage

I like the IV and VII for the styling more than anything else
