any way to make 4kq power steering feel better??

Anthony:  I'd have to go with Matt on this one.
The 4000Q is nimble but is not the best balanced car.  With so much of the 
5cyl engine over the front wheels, it understeers period.
Suspension, 15" low profiles and tweaks with a rear sway bar might help, but 
that cars light, but not well balanced.

To get rid of the boosted feel take off the PS belt, like perviously 
mentioned.

Darting around in traffic doesn't make a well balanced car, try a BMW.
