Didn't you read the post you replied to?

The poly bushings primarily make initial turn in and quick steering changes quicker. Because it takes the slop out of the system by replacing the rubber bushings with polyurethane, any steering changes, and even hard acceleration and braking are made better. I know for a fact that my high speed, hard braking has become much more predicatble (less steering deflection), and invites you to dip deeper into scrubbing speed.

What do you consider a "major mod"? I don't consider things like shocks/struts, springs, anti-roll bars, bushings, to be major mods. If you really want to stay low dollar, and ease of install, I'd start with a good strut tower brace such as the OMP.

There is a night and day difference with the iPd anti-roll bars.
