    We all have heard the complaints about the F355 steering not being as direct as previous models. So has anyone done a direct ratio steering box conversion from the Fiorano handling pack or maybe challenge steering box? I am looking for any information on this subject. Also I have read that in Europe they offered a manual steering option. If this is true would this be a viable conversion? Thank you in advance.

    The option "direct mechanical steering" is the other option I am interested in.

    We're putting a challange rack in my car next month. We put in the new challange pump but that seemed like a copy of the stock pump. Has the same pressure setting on the stock pump and the Challange pump.

    I'll post when I get the rack in. The car has Challenge bars, Motons and Challenge wheels. I have the Challenge sway bar links that I will put in this spring. I had the car out at Road America and handling was perfect. Never neutral and planted.
