I tried searching and didn't find the exact answer.
I'm struggling with off power steering (or just getting through a corner tight vs taking it wide)
I used the Joe Bornhorst setup but I have gotten so far away from that that I'm not sure what to call it.
I am using 7/7/5 in the diffs and I believe 425/ 475 in the shocks. The car just won't turn into the corner, I can't comment if its getting out of the corner well because I have to go so slow to setup for the exit.
Any help would be appreciated.

It's probably a medium grip medium sized track. Jumps aren't really that big and it has some tight technical turns which is my biggest issue.

Please post a setup sheet so I can offer help specific to your setup. Would recommend looking at your diffs and make sure they're free. Off the top of my head, raising the rear ride height or dropping the front. Lighter front sway bar should help a lot. Removing one or two steering stop washers.
I'm going to blow the whole car apart this week and change everything back to that original setup and start again.

One of the easiest things you can try is removing the steering stop washers. A lot of setups call for 3-4 washers but for my particular driving style I just can't use them. I run the screw only. This buggy has a ton of steering built into it so a lack of steering on a tight track should not be an issue. Keep us posted on what you try and we'll try to get you sorted.

I removed my rear sway bar, pink springs up front 10/7/3 diffs rear ackerman arm position and removed 2 of the bump steer washers on the ackerman arm. locked down my servo saver, And I had to reduce my epa on my steering because it was so twitchy until I got used to how well it turned. light years better hope this helps

I also ran less droop I just ey ball'd it about 3/4 of a turn on the screw and that helped when coming into tight turns after being hard on the power

From your setup sheet I'd try 24mm or less front ride height and 1° toe out front.
The camber links are already giving you quite a low front RC compared to the rear RC to a car that, as said, has tons of steer.
My two cents as some says
Edit: Something just went across my mind : what tires are you using ? Sometimes it's as simple a that.

If you don't want to switch fluids, I suggest going thinner than whatever is on the setup. If it says 7-7-5, try 5-5-3. In general PT seems to have a feel of being 2k thinner on diff fluid and 1/2 wt (50 or so cst) on oil.
