Try stock short horn that came with kit or one of similar length. I am positive you will say the car understeers with it. It has a feeling similar to negative exponential from the fact that you will have to add more EPA for the servo to reach full steering lock. This is what a lot of people have tried around here and liked.

My BD7 2014 black edition came with the plastic cam holders, so I would say the blue will be the same.

There is a short shock conversion available now, it's aimed at curing grip roll (I read reducing grip) so not necessary if you don't normally suffer grip roll, or if you normally run in low grip conditions.
Thanks alot.
