The W211 has extremely light steering. I remember that vividly.
I doubt you can change that without major modifications. It's just how the car was inherently designed to operate.

The steering effort required was higher on the 02-06 211's than on the 06-09 211's... but the on center feel and the return to center coming out of a turn is better in the later cars.

The steering could be a little tighter IMO. It's no where near my BMW 3 series, but it should be as tight as my VW Passat's where.
My Father's Lexus 2007 LS350 is so over boosted it reminds me of a Cadillac from way back in the day of the 70's & 80's.
