Good idea but bad design and execution from AE. Stock plastic steering rack has a notch cut out to allow full steering travel which they did not do on this aluminium steering rack. This oversight will cause you to loose steering travel. I added this clearance on mine by sanding down a half moon shape using the stock plastic one as a template. My steering works way better and I have equal side to side travel. This is hardly a upgrade when AE is expecting their buyers to modify steering rack. With the modification done it is much stronger then the stock plastic and almost a must have but beware of this issue.
Top quality, just like you'd expect from Factory Team. This is absolutely with getting to help sharpen the steering response of the MT8. The loss of steering angle is negligible.
