Personally I think the steering ratio is fine unless you autocross a lot. Getting rid of the stock bushings improve the feel more than changing the steering ratio on these cars IMO.
Bottom line for me is that without a steering angle sensor servotronic is irrelevant so that removes one buncha crap to deal with.

Caster was 8.3deg at one point and then back to 7deg at another and it didn't seem to matter terribly at low speed once the driver was used to it which is what I was concerned about since the Vorshlags are now set all the way to the rear.

The slow steering drives me nutz so I'm looking forward to the M3 rack to make rotation a bit easier to effect.
