Default 08 Type UK Sti Power Steering

Hi thinking about buying an 08 STi, had an MY04 one a few years back and thinking of comming back to my roots. I test drove a couple and noticed the power steering is very light. A common criticism in the press.

A quick google search and a forum search revealed nothing.

Are there any modifications to increase the weight of the steering on the STi?

upgrade roll bars front and rear, and maybe put stiffer springs on.
doesnt really make the steering fell heavier, however makes the car more precise on turn in.

Litchfield Imports do a upgrade to the Hatch power steering system, amongst a lot of other suspension / brake / power upgrades.
