997.1 Steering Compared to 997.2 Steering.

What is the difference bet the old 997.1 Steering Compared to the new 997.2 Steering, is they any difference at all... does it loose that Porsche steering feel? or does it feel better then ever.

According to Porsche's technical literature the basic steering package remains the same conceptually but on the 'S' they have upgraded spring rates and increased the anti-roll bar diameters, and they've improved the programming of the PASM Sport system to give a more attuned suspension. What this means to me is that professional drivers might notice a difference when pushing on a track but that us amateurs would not feel a difference whether on the street or at a PCA DE.

997.2 seems more planted in my opinion. My 07 was bit jittery at lower speed (about up to 70 mph) and feel more stable at higher speeds. My new 09 seem calmer in anyspeed.
