When leighton mapped my car a few months ago,he commented about the amount of torque steer and thought my wishbones may be shot. I had extra power so did not care and just thought it was normal for my car to go where it wanted on heavy boost. Anyway,johhnybravo did my car the other day and changed my wishbones ,drop links and a lot more. I am now driving a different car and I can use ALL the performance the beast offers. My point is....if your wishbones and drop links are shot......you are driving a sub standard car and can never get the full benefit of all that performance. Paul

Same situation on my Alfa 155 -changed wishies and drops and transformed the car. Changing from my 16v Coupe (recent wishbones and drops) to my current 20v has highlighted what a difference these make...even on the N/A the torque steer is impressive... ...a job for the end of the month with the service I think!

You will have to ask Johnny....he did a lot more work than just the suspension stuff.

Just replaced my wishbones today, along with the rest of the suspension. The wishbone ball joints were completely shot about 3mm play Notice any difference like being able to drive in a straight line whilst giving the loud peddle a beating
