Lancer Evo RS vs MR?

I've driven an MR, but not an RS, what's the biggest difference? Aerodynamics, suspensions, and transmission? (6 speed vs 5 speed)
 
AFAIK power everything is taken out, windows, seats, locks, mirrors. No ABS, audio system, A/C, sound deadening, interior light/handles, keyless entry and rear wing and comes with a 5sp. I do remember it coming with a LSD in place of the open diff up front but i think they added that to every model but don't quote me. I've read it's a 146lb difference and when hitting those twisties, every pound counts. Basically a no frills version of the Evo with a lower price also.
 
The RS is the stripper model (no not that stripper 😛). The RS will out perform the MR but it's mostly because of weight savings from the things it doesn't have.
