The different size servo saver will make a difference, as well as the position it is in, and what angle it is at. all of these things affect ackerman. i know on a rev. 3 you want the servo to be far enough up so that the steering links are further forward on the saver than on the knuckles. (my sorry excuse for a diagram: / \ if that makes any sense, you dont want them angled that much, but like half an inch (around there) between the ball studs on the saver and the ones on the knuckles.)

on a dynamic strut w/ an angled servo mount i am not sure though. but there is no right answer, its all tuning, except like always you have too much of an extreme in either directoin (too much or not enough ackerman) then its bad.

also if thats a standard size servo i would take it off the car right now, and go buy a 12th scale servo. also run the grey (small size) kimbrough servo saver. i personally like aitronics servo's (the "one" for 12th scale is like $60).
