Does anyone experiment with these numbers at all to improve or change the
performance of their wheel or pedals?

I generally adjust mine to match the min/max values from the raw and direct
input readings on the left, as the normal calibration routine for my
Logitech wheel doesn't give full use of the travel in the wheel or pedals.
You can also adjust where the throttle or brake "tips-in" or maxes out this
way, for games that don't allow in-game calibration ala GPL. Other uses:
for games like the old Rally Championship demo that had absurdly sensitive
steering, setting the steering min/max numbers much farther apart solves the
problem easily, and for motorcycle sims setting them closer together lets
you match wheel tilt to bike tilt - much better with bikes than using full
rotation.

For what it's worth, the way I set my center value is to rock the wheel back
and forth a few times and watch the left-side raw values when I straighten
the wheel. They won't always be the same when the wheel is physically
centered; there's usually some slight variation. Anyway, I pick the number
that comes up most often and set the center value at that.
I'd guess you can probably dial out the left pull in N4 by tweaking the
center value, but haven't tried it. In fact, you should be able to make the
wheel response very sensitive in one direction and near-dead in the other,
if you just had to... ;-)
