Default RE: turing hard..braking somthing..

It depends how fast you are taking the turn. Your steering and suspension compenents are not meant to take 90° at 80mph. It is possible that if you put the suspension under too much stress you could break something, especially if you hit something. If you want to test the limits of your handling, don't do it on the roads. Take your car AutoX or take it to a parking lot. If try that on roads you are asking for trouble.
