Hi everyone!
I recently drove a Mustang GT convertible rental and was absolutely smitten by it, and now I’m looking to buy one. I also drove a Camaro SS convertible to compare, and was blown away by the steering feel of that car. Pretty much everything else (engine, visibility, ride, etc.) I thought was better with the Mustang, however going back and driving the Mustang I now notice how numb the steering feels. By that I mean the steering doesn’t communicate front end grip / what the front tires and suspension are doing, despite changing the steering modes from comfort to sport (I actually found the sportier setting to feel more artificial).
My question is, is there a way I could potentially improve the steering feel of the Mustang GT? I have read that the Shelby GT350 and GT500 have steering racks that are much better for steering feel and response. Would it be possible to say, theoretically, swap in a GT350 EPAS system in place of the one that comes in the standard GT? Or would It be possible to tune the EPAS system?
Thanks in advance!
