AGR Steeering boxes
Ok so what ya all think about AGR sterring boxes. From what I have read people seem to like them . Also to what should I go for, the varible power assited ratio or the 12:1 box?
Personally I like the idea of the varible ratio box casue I am a lazy pos =) hehe but a friend of mine brought up a good point about the VR box. Their is more stuff to break in it.
Here is the page where the boxes are at.

Kat...IM really happy with mine! I had only one problem...The valving was much softer than the stock valving in my IROC box. I didnt like it.. made it too easy to over correct in a corner. The AGR box comes stock with a 210 valve. I sent it back to AGR and had them put in a 220 torsion valve. Its very close to the valving in my stock IROC box now.
BTW...It really tightend up the steering! I bought the 12.1 fixed ratio box.

I baught the Agr box from summit, like MikeH it has a MUCH lighter feeling to it... more like a Caddy than a sports car. But at the time I couldn't take it out to send it back so I just stuck with it. After a few days you get used to it and it makes parking noticably easier. Also plan on getting an alignment b/c your steering wheel will be tilted, in my case to the right about 20 degrees or so, but still a very nice box and I recomend it. Also if you want the heavier feeling to it you can probably buy it right from AGR instead.
