Power steering

Hey guys,

I plan on changing the power steering fluid soon as maintenance. I remember reading a while ago on here that someone used Amsoil fluid and it made the steering feel firmer. Has anyone gotten these results?
Any recommendations for fluid?

PS fluid is one of those that Honda has a special sauce for. Our ABS system can be finicky.

I too would stick with OEM.

Amsoil served me well but it looks like it's thinner now. I've been running Redline High Temp ATF for a while now. I don't recommend it since I have less than a year of testing but so far so good, very good actually. Unfortunately OEM is all that can be recommended.
