I dont think AWD gives you sharper turns...it just gives you better traction. I would go with the suspension upgrade....... 4.5 tierod

AWD slows you down. I got the suspension upgrade and mine does 180s with my setup when brakes tapped. My set up is soft (red) springs up front and stiff (blue) in back. Soft tires in front and hard in back...Also tap the brakes before you turn, see if that satifes you. it might be the fact that you are going into the turn to hard and your cousin is simply slowing down...?.....just my 2 cents...

Try using a combination of brake and less throttle, I can do perfect turns with my RWD Supra...

Well the servo makes the wheels turn...but i think you mean wich one makes it turn sharper. The springs allow more and less body roll, the tierods atcually make the wheel turn sharper...so the anwser is the tierods

yeah that also can be the problem. But when you say you need "sharper" turns do you mean yours dosnt turn sharp at all and you turn in big circles or that you do turn sharp and just need sharper. Cause the control thing will work if thats the case
