Bingo.

By only changing the front you have changed the balance of the car. So now it steers more.

Essentially your problem was understeer, not a lack of fundamental corner speed. If you had asked me how to cure understeer I would have said softer front spring.

With softer springs on the back as well it no doubt feels pretty much the same in terms of balance as with the original springs, but rolls more, is more sluggish to respond, but probably soaks up the bumps a bit better.


Although personally speaking I never set the car up with limited steering lock, I always have enough steering to turn the car full circle in the narrowest part of the track.
