I get a good amount of steering feel with my setup, but it's a b8 with its hydraulic steering, not a b8.5. I have the full EuroCode setup and PSS10 coilovers.

Setting coilovers to a stiff setting really does a lot for how heavy the car feels too. Changing my coilovers from setting '5' to '7' makes the S4 feel like it lost 300lbs.
