Q: Is it possible to quicken our steering ratio?

By replacing the Pinion gear or some other way?
Or even if it was possible, could the power steering pump handle the extra stress?

Just a thought...

Would you really want it to be any quicker than it is now?

Cars with no power steering feel awesome at speed.

I love how the 355 has variable power steering. That is how our cars should have been. I think I recently read the STi or Evo has that too?

Yes, I think it's too slow...

I don't need the "freak out" protection of slow steering.

I agree with you little dude, the steering needs to be tighter!
