i have 5000+ miles on my mcs and thoroughly enjoy the car. in another thread, someone mentioned "alta psrs". i went to their website and thought i might consider these for helping eliminate some of the torque steer. have any of you tried these and are there any potential problems?
sincerely, don

 

It has been done, there is a thread on here someplace about it.

There will also be a full writeup of how to do the install on the R56 in the next Alliance Magazine

 

how do i get that magazine...?

The next issue will hopefully be ready by June 13. Thats my goal, but it is a moving target.

 

While the psrs seem to be a very good product and something I might add in the future I didn't read anything about them reducing torque steer. I have read on NAM that lowering the MINI while help reduce the torque steer. I haven't been able to verify this myself and I am a little sceptical about this as well. I will let you know once I install the new springs in a couple of weeks.

 

i owned a '98 integra "type r" and the front end had much less torque steer. i know that the mcs turbo motor has more torque, but the "r" motor could be run at much lower gears. pardon me if i am wrong, but wouldn't stiffening some of the steering connections help alleviate some of the torque steer?
