Hey man, would you help me understand the change that will happen. I mean does the CS/CSL not have different steering parts all together? So this is just a program/digital change, what is it actually doing? I’m strongly considering but have a manual so I’d only be getting the steering so didn’t know if just that is enough to notice a difference? Thanks for your help!

Sorry, missed this.

The CS absolutely has different hardware. Most importantly, it has different hubs which allow more camber. It also has different springs and sway bars.

So the steering. You know how the standard car is a bit reluctant to return to center. Feels a little "gloopy" like the rack doesn't quite move freely? Doesn't have much "weight" when you load the car into a corner? The CS software gets rid of all of that. It feels SO much more natural. It's still not fizzing with feel, but you definitely get more and it weights up much more naturally. I literally felt the difference before I got to the end of my street.

I'm planning on adding monoballs soon and can't wait to see THAT difference.
