How you're able to drive withe 24:1 manual steering is beyond me. We've proven over and over again the feel and performance of the stock style parts can be excellent. We don't have the ad budget of the big guys and most people already have many lower performing parts already on their cars. When you use ALL of our parts, the car is excellent and very stable even at track speeds. The ride is good, parts are durable, suspension travel and turning radius also excellent. Just my .02.

Faster ratio is potentially on my radar for sure. I wasn't sure what it was going to feel like with just the added caster, so I didn't want to swap too much stuff at once (plus the boxes are quite expensive). I would probably split the difference and do a 20:1, though I have been toying with the idea of EPAS one of these days as well. If I did that I'd probably go straight to 16:1, so don't really want to buy twice. Might just have to keep my eye out and see if anyone is selling a faster ratio box used. I've also just thought about going to a smaller steering wheel, but I've had a lot of ideas I've never gone through with, lol. Back when I first bought the car I was still in college and thinking it was going to be a pro street / super stock tribute style car, just with a modern Hemi instead of an old one. The more I messed with it the more I found it was just a really nice cruiser. The Viper used to be my full time daily driver, but after a cam swap I did during a rebuilt from a spun rod bearing it's a fair deal less pleasant to drive on a daily basis. Way louder and just generally not as friendly around town. The Dart is super smooth now after my latest tuning and the fresh tires and suspension work, so it's actually pretty nice to drive. Still a little loud on the highway from wind noise, bad weatherstripping, and general lack of insulation, but much more tolerable day to day than the Viper.
