Example. In a high G turn (slow or fast) it is harder for me to tell when the tires are going to break loose with EPS than it is with Hyd. But, the steering wheel feels more "locked in" or "slotted" with EPS.
Note: Mazda is FWD so that my blow my logic out the window.

Exactly, Since i'm not doing much street racing these days, it is a practical convenience.
