Options to Increase Sport Steering Angle

[RenchesAndSords]

Hi, I'm looking into options to try and increase the steering angle on my 2022 sport touring. in the technical specs, the turning circle is a good bit larger than the standard model. I'd like to avoid swapping steering racks if possible. Are there any aftermarket knuckles or tie rods that can accomplish this?

You and I have Opposite desire, I would love my EX-L To have the steering ratio of sport.

The steering ratio is good, but the sport has a turning circle that over half a meter larger (2ft). It makes tighter parking lots a bit of a pain

The steering RATIO is the same for all models. Yes, the sports, touring and Si have a reduced turning radius.

From a prior discussion on this. Sports/touring/si larger and wider tires and extra insulation (touring) need less angle to meet minimum clearance specs. After searching steering related part numbers, the only difference is the steering rack assembly. It is most likely swappable but this is a very expensive assembly even used and diy. It's also a difficult swap, the subframe needs to be dropped which would require an engine hoist and then an alignment after. Conclusion, unless someone donates you a salvaged civic, with proper tools and several days to do work.... It's best to live with what you got.
