A700-AM22 AM22 IAS Steering Arm x 2

I'm interested to know how these compare to the stockers? I assume the team drivers have been testing the new setup. Any feedback?
Please see the picture attached.
At the same time combination of AM20 and AM21 delivers a bit less AM20 Steering Rod travel.
IAS set can provide more Ackermann value setting, more linear "steering feeling" near to max. steering angles but several degrees less max steering angle herewith.

Steen Graversen likes to use this steering system although Ivan Laptev prefers standard steering set.
So generally speaking it is a matter of personal preference and features of a particular driver.
