Default Rc10 b5m understeer issues

Hi all
Looking for some advice. After taking advice of softening the shock oil to 25w. The car handles a lot better. I'm looking to sharpen up the steering and make it turn quicker and be more responsive. Any suggestions would be great. Setup is straight from the manual except 25w Shock oil in the rear (32.5 in front )
Thanks in advance

Lots of things you can do to sharpen the steering up.....

Do you want more initial, or more mid/exit?

Ball or gear diff?

Weight at the front will help a bit and a lighter oil in the diff, if you are running a gear diff.
