Actually, it would awesome if someone could modify the turning radius. Currently the XD has the turning circle of a Camry. It should at least have the smaller radius of a Corolla, or better yet the Yaris.
This is my biggest gripe with the XD. It's a wonderful small car, with a ridiculously large turing radius.

I met up with the guys at TB Performance this past Friday, and they designed and built a few chassis braces for my XD. Great guys, great product. Daniel the owner, is a true car enthusiast. They installed the braces and we took it for a test run around some tight corners; I felt an immmediate improvement in structural rigity, the car was totally planted to the road. I will report back after I rack-up some more miles, but so far I am very happy with the improvement in handling.
