Default Steeroids. Worth it/Not worth it?

Hello,
I would like to receive feedback on Steeroids. Did you get a noticeable improvement? Compared to what? Worn out stock system or stock system in good shape? Would you do it again?
I'm looking for feedback from those who actually have it installed on their car and have gotten an alignment etc, so that there are no excuses.
General discussion on the merits of rack-and-pinion has already been covered.:D
Thank you very much in advance for your help!

I think any rack/pinion setup is worth it over any recirc ball setup, especially the stock vette setup....
this is on going from my tite newish front end with urethane bushings and such to the rack/pinion install....I did my own, using the same rach Steeroids uses.....did my own brakcets...so essentialy it's the same thing..../well worth the change.....

the car has stopped following truck ruts in the highway the way it used to...problem is worse with the wide tires I have on the '72 here, may not be so noticeable with stock tires/rims.....
