    EP.54 Nerd Talk About Steering Systems

    Play Episode Listen Later Nov 22, 2023 72:32


    In this podcast episode, Mike delves into his professional history, focusing on his experience in the realm of steering systems. We explore the essential elements that contribute to an exceptional steering system and challenge the notion that assessing a system's quality solely based on its "feel" is flawed. Additionally, we discuss the unique aspects of tuning a steering system compared to the more familiar process of tuning an ECU. Buckle up, as today's episode promises to dive deeply into technical details. On a different note, Hayden showcases his expertise by unveiling a new design for the MK1 GTI, aiming to extract an additional 6hp—a significant 10% boost from the factory horsepower.

    Quick notes for this episode. We are presented by fuel lab and would love you to stop by their website and check out their brushless pumps. Also, remember you get a special discount by typing in the promo code Tyrone. The other thing you can do to help the show is give it a share and leave a review. Unfortunately, we must impress the algorithms. I don't care what you say, even if Devin isn't the best person on Professional Awesome. On second thought, that's what you should say. Today, Mike, Dan, and Devin talk about the BS idea that automakers are doing to get more of your money. Similar to online gaming, they want to microtransaction you to death by paying for monthly services. We took that personally. We also discuss what is considered low-hanging fruit to make a car faster and the next step in developing the flagship EVO to reach the next level.  This episode is presented by Fuel Lab https://www.fuelab.com/  Our Socials Instagram: www.instagram.com/professionalawesomeracing/  Facebook: www.instagram.com/professionalawesomeracing/  Facebook Group: www.facebook.com/groups/2950472345184860  Website: professionalawesome.com
