Everyone thinks of adding power, an exhaust or slapping coilovers on when they think of mods but what less popular mod has made the biggest difference in a way the car has driven for you?

For me it was putting a quicker steering rack in my K swapped Civic. The old rack was 3.88 turns lock-to-lock and the new rack went down to 2.98 turns LTL which made a huge difference in terms of responsiveness and was something the car benefited from all of the time whereas an extra 20% more HP would have only been noticeable in rare circumstances. Right behind quicker steering has been shorter gearing for me which lets you exploit the full rev range in a lot more situations.
