2003 Evo pulling to the right on acceleration
Discussion
As title. I recently went to pick up some bits for my van and went in the Evo from Newcastle to Leeds, predominantly AI and M1. It's become apparent that on even moderate acceleration, there's a pull to the right, and an equally noticeable pull to the left when throttling off. The throttling off pull, in particular, leads me to think it's not torque steer. The car isn't standard, it's on Evo 9 Bilstiens, and it's making 410 / 400. There's no vibration, on a twisty road, it still handles exactly as I'd expect, but now I've seen this happening, I can't un-see it. The car has recently been aligned, and the tyre pressures are fine. It's a very straight line problem. Thoughts?

Thrust angle! Get the geo checked
Cheers. I'm struggling to find anyone I can trust in Newcastle to get it right. I might end up at the alignment centre in Southampton if all else fails. Pointless having a car like this if I can't keep on top of it.Edit. Just realised my go to guy in Durham for Evo servicing could probs be trusted to sort it.
