I am still testing that and need to find a wide open parking lot or somewhere that I can.

I am making that exact same transition as well. It is very different and you are spot on about being able to pitch the Evo and power out vs setup and turn. I do really like the PTM and it really does allow you to get on the power very early compared to a normal rwd. What helped me get settled in is on my track day i went thru each of the PTM modes and was able to see and feel how each mode gave more control back to me. I was able to get on the power very early like I was still in my Evo X. I suggest take a track day and go thru the modes and it will make you more comfortable with mode 5. In mode 5 i was able to get that rear end to wiggle/rotate. I also did an autocross so I could put the car on the very edge without significant risk and hitting a wall. Thats also really helped dial me in. I do miss my Evo but this is definitely a fun capable car.
