Can you guys tell me how to get more on-power steering? My car seems to push badly when I am coming out of the corners and get back on the throttle.
The P2K Pro I am running was 'tweaked' by one of the local motor magicians. He aligned the brush hoods and located the arm in the magnetic field. I am not sure about the springs, but I am running Fantom 309 brushes.

With my car geared to a rollout of almost 29 mm (1.14 inches) I am just as fast as a properly geared XRay running a Fantom Monster Stock.

As for your power-on corner exit understeering, I found that a slightly stiffer rear spring with a tighter front diff (or in the extreme a one-way) helped me get more steering in general.

That is my 2 cents.
