LOKKA is good but at the pay off of reduced turning circle, have you noticed the same ?
I removed the MAF amp that is all, plus driving a little less aggressively, have not noticed any reduced turning circle, and can see no reason why the Lokka should have any effect, Rick

Pete I know exactly what you mean!!!! The LOKKA does make the turning circle worse sometimes, depends how much wind up is in the box and how sharp the corner is

... and how much beans you're giving her at the time

Saying that though, if you're on mud (as Rick suggests) I've found I can turn sharp enough to impress a chap in a Defender 90, though purposefully kicking out the back a little did help
