Steering rack hack

vanilla.j_ · 11-29-2018, 07:58 PM

Found out the comp pack has a 10% quicker steering rack than regular models because of revised Servotronic software. Anyway possible to revise the steering rack in a regular F10 to achieve comp pack steering response? Goal is to dial in steering with planned Dinan handling components. Want to see if planned mods can be better than comp pack without so called "harsh" ride quality.

Hope anyone else has had this thought on the steering rack

The CP rack is a different rack with a different ratio. No coding or programming is going to change it. It is not easy to retrofit as was mentioned in the official info from BMW in the original announcement of this CP. you can search it up pretty easily if try.
