Is there a way we can recalibrate the steering feel to even a tighter feel?

I like to have sport mode feel as normal and sport mode feel even tighter.

Steeda Gtrac subframe K brace. I recommend the IRS subframe brace as well. Itll make steering feel tighter/more responsive. Any chassis stiffening brace should, especially up front.

Will these braces make a big difference on a PP equiped GT?

The G-Trac brace made a big difference in ability to turn in with exactitude on my PP-equipped GT, albeit modified with Steeda springs and sways. The back end of my car got where I needed it with Steeda springs, sways, bushing mounts and vertical links. The car now steers beautifully, doesn't roll, doesn't pitch on accceleration or dive under braking, and the front-to-rear grip is matched, yielding great confidence to place the car right where you want it on corner entry, mid turn, and exit. The G-Trac brace's effect on steering was both noticeable and transformative.

It's a HUGE difference from the relatively vague/floaty stock PP setup. I'd say it even rides better without those stock PP undulations. I did not feel the need for the rear brace after the bushing mounts and vertical links (put on after everything else), but that's not to say that the chassis wouldn't improve yet more from it; I'm still considering doing it. It's just that the car feels perfect right now for hard-ass canyon carving and everyday use.

Thanks for posting your driving feedback post-install of the Steeda goodies, John! :)
