External Steering: Stern only, worth it?

I hope you don't mind my question here NQ. If so I will delete the post however I am up against the same thing at the moment. The only dif is this is a twin TRS application with all the original components from 78. The steer seemed completely fine at speeds under 60 mph however I have stepped up the engines and plan on running over 80. I know that kind of speed is nothing anymore however one of my problems is that my cmi tails don't clear the steering cyl. mounted on the transom starboard engine. cmi wants 600 bucks to alter the angle on the tails so I was just thinking why not go hyd. What would be my least exp. yet good route to go that I could add to later on. I can't really swing the whole deal right now. Any Ideas?
Thanks

How does this kit tie in with the cable from the helm. Also it appears that I would still need the steer ram or componet that the cable currently mounts? Is this a correct assumption or is that eliminated? I have 0 knowledge on the subject and could use a little help.
Once again sorry for robbing your thread ///

I am not that familiar with the trs setup, but I have a latham add on setup on a bravo, and all the junk in the engine compartment is still there. I would like to go to full hydraulic, but am not sure what all I need.

You would need the helm,helm Kit, hoses, fittings, filter. It's an easy install and makes a big difference in handling.
