Found out today that there are options in increasing the steering angle and was wondering what do you think and what are your experiences?

I never thought about needing more angle but it would be nice to have more angle when I am in tight spots to possible avoid 2 step uturns.

I saw that to increase the angle, the limiter on the steering rack needs to be removed or to get even more angle there are angle kits.

If you go with an option that effectively decreases the steering arm length of the knuckles (either modded knuckles or add-ons to the stock knuckles), it will facilitate more angle and also give you a faster steering ratio.
What you need to pay attention to, for daily/street driven cars (unless you're an animal and dgaf) is the Ackerman angle that the angle kit provides. If you want good street manners and/or stable grip in the front end, you want a kit that can give you stock Ackerman, NOT 0 or decreased Ackerman.
Plenty data on the subject of Ackerman angle online, if you're unfamiliar.
