Thanks!
The torque referred to for the steering is not the torque created by the engine. They are talking about the torque applied when you turn the steering wheel that activates the power steering. The sensors have nothing to do with torque steer. For the steering to compensate for torque steer it would need to turn the wheel on it's own. It doesn't do that.
