Man, you probably have bad suspension alighnment which could be cured at any shop with the proper alighnment equipment. Its either that our your suspension bushings are so worn that the car pulls to right or left when the gas pedal is pressed.

Check your wheel bearings. I had the same problems until I swapped the steering knuckle out... Now the only problem is the excessive torque steering.

Lemme tell ya that removing the wheel bearings is gonna be a biatch. You'll probable end up cursing, bleeding or ending up with a terribly broken nail. It take time and patience. The bushings are located on all joints and ends(I think) on the suspension, but hey if your lucky it could just be a bad suspension alighnment. Take it to the shop.

Ever since I lowered my car, it has pulled to the right, regardless of an alignment. I just lived with it until I found out the other day that it's caused by torque steer. The only thing the mechanic could suggest is to put stiffer engine mounts in which isn't gonna be easy. It's something I've learned to live with.
