You do realize that the Evo has coilOVERS from the factory. So do most cars made today. Even a 2000 Ford Tauras has coilovers. They call it this because the COIL spring goes OVER the strut. Hense the term COILOVER. As apposed to something like a Ford F-150 where the spring sits next to the shock. That’s everyone’s suspension lesson for the day.

> A coilover is an automobile suspension device. The name coilover is an abbreviation of "coil over shock absorber".
> Coilovers are found on many vehicles, from RC cars to normal passenger cars, race cars and 4x4 vehicles. They are sometimes used as a factory suspension option on new cars. Coilovers are used in double wishbone suspension systems, and are often a component of MacPherson struts.
> Two of the main types of coilovers are full coilovers and slip-on coilovers. Full coilovers are matched...

“It consists of a [shock absorber](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_absorber) with a [coil spring](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coil_spring) encircling it. The shock absorber and spring are assembled as a unit prior to installation, and are replaced as a **unit** when the shock absorber has leaked.”

it’s still called a coil spring, or a spring for short when it’s seperate from the shock/strut; like when i buy lowering springs or stock springs.

I can change that statement right now to “coilovers are made of bubblegum and elephant toejam to increase rigidity while maintaining flexibility”

Wikipedia is junk.

^^Yeah, that is true. I does supply good starting sources for a research paper. I forgot about that. What do you teach?

lol If anyone has heard the song by Eminem, 50 Cent and Busta Rhymes bashing JaRule, Busta says at the end “If you got beef with me, homie, come to me before you make shit a public issue” Its truly a ruthless song.
