I went with the epas because of the 2.4 rack and the shorter arms on the modified mazda FDS3 uprights. It would be roughly as hard to turn as a 2.0 ratio rack because of the arms but at least it will have a very quick lock to lock response. It should still have the feel because with this box of tricks it only goes into low assist. They are very popular with the rally boys so the steering must still communicate with the driver. If this control box does not work out there is another thats available that works off an adjuster knob on the dash in which you have the control over the amount of assistance.
