If you can go without it I'd leave it. Just another thing to fuck up at the end of the day.

I'd say it's the opposite mate. But I've only ever driven a PAS equipped car with the PAS off. It's heavy, but I'd say you get more road feel.

Unless you're getting this EPAS, apprently you can get a control module to adjust the feel of it. Would be quite cool.

Lol, I wouldn't fancy it either.

Well you know what they say - if it's not broken don't fix it. Then again, if you think it's going to be an advantage enough to go to the trouble to do it, go for it.

EPAS with variable feel isn't too difficult o wire, a kit can be bought and it's a simple load of connections as far as i can see...
