ends are the same.

I can't remember if I didn't put my old gti6 ram on the vts rack to keep the correct amount of steering lock.

The TRE's are the same on the VTS rack but the track rod arms are shorter. Easy enough to swap the GTI arms in though

What parts of the rack will I actually benefit from then? Doesn't look like there is much to the rack without the ram?



That's good to know

I kinda worked that out to be honest Damien but I'm a little stumped on what is actually of benefit from the VTS rack? If the ram is different and you fit a gti6 ram to a VTS rack surely that's the main component what's the difference in the racks that makes the improve?

The rack and pinion is geared at a different ratio, so you get more turn of the wheels of the car for the same amount of steering input ie. you don't have to turn the steering wheel as much to turn the wheels "quicker" steering.

As I said it's the Rack that's the main difference not the Ram that stops the wheel from hitting the wider box ...VTS 1 = 2.4 turns of wheel
VTS 2= 2.6 turns of the wheel
Standard 6 rack = something like 3.1 turns of the wheel ...as said it may be 3.6 ?

I run VTS 1 as it's more direct fit & you can use your old bolt on6 pipe work unlike VTS 2 where you change to VTS ones ...
I don't run power steering & it's a b**ch in the paddocks to turn slow with 205 tyres

Basically much quicker response & less turn of the wheel to where your going

I thought the standard rack was 3.6 turns but others may be able to confirm. I have the VTS Ph2 rack which is 2.6 turns and it suits the car perfectly. The pipework was no major drama to swap over though I would have got the Ph1 2.4 rack for simplicity had I been able to find one at the time.

The rack looks externally identical to the standard one, but the internal gearing is different. The original rack was by no means bad (the 1980s Audi quattros I used to love had slow racks but you got used to it). But a faster rack in a Rallye makes the car feel even more intuitive and adjustable than normal. Traversing a roundabout can be done with a slight flexing of the wrists, but stability at motorway speeds is unaffected - it does not make the car twitchy. I like the slightly heavier steering. As I said above, a quicker rack suits the character of the car IMO.

I can see your going to run power steering

All I can tell you is (don't) anybody run a phase 1 / 2-4 without power steering as I have ....Prescott hill climb was a nightmare & my arms were buggered for days after ......it's great when your on trackdays but a total ball ache driving on the road & moving the car around the paddocks ...I may go back to standard 3.6 now I'm not running power steering otherwise I will need a 2 foot steering wheel or arms like Arnie

NO to heavy & im only running a 40amp Altenator ....that's why I sold it to you Chris
I can run mine nearly flat out in the corners
