ATTENTION TO ALL Electric Power Steering Applicants
I wish to alert you to a potential danger with the use of the power steering in an Alpine utilizing the Burman box.
I just received this post from a fellow member of our club:
Guys, Just for info the steering 'experts' in the UK are completely opposed to fitting power steering to the Alpine system. Apparently it is completely unsuitable for it and trials with a variety of systems have resulted in cracked steering columns and Burman boxes. It is not an area that I have any expertise in but I just thought that I would mention it as it has been a topic of conversation here recently. They are not anti- power steering in general and apparently it works well on the Tiger set up but they say it is not suitable and potentially dangerous to put it onto an Alpine.

This is/was the first indication to me of any potentially dangerous use of the EPS for the Alpine. Please be advised of the above warning as to its completely unsuitable use in an Alpine.
