Quicker Turns And Better Times Courtesy Of Turn One Steering

When it comes to performance, one of the best upgrades any enthusiast can make is installing a new steering rack. Sure, power adders make a noticeable difference in your build when power is needed, but adding quick-ratio steering will change the feel of your car the moment you pull it out of the garage. That’s especially true if you have a fifth or sixth-generation Corvette: super-capable classics that, with a few bolt-on upgrades, can easily become track day weapons.

Designed as a direct-fit solution, Turn One Steering’s professionally rebuilt C5 and C6 rack-and-pinions include multiple customization options. For starters, buyers can opt for a proprietary quick-ratio upgrade that exchanges their Corvette’s factory 16:1 ratio for a more responsive 11:1 ratio. Simply put: as you turn the steering wheel, the rack moves at a faster rate. That faster rate ultimately translates to better corner entry, better speed, and a car that’s better suited for performance-oriented driving like autocross, drifting, and track days.

Buyers can also option their Turn One steering rack to delete GM’s factory Magnasteer system. Designed to make commuting easier, Magnasteer is an electromagnetic valve that progressively lightens the car’s steering as speed decreases. By choosing Turn One’s Magnaster delete, buyers will ensure their Corvette’s steering maintains consistent weight and feel at all speeds. In addition to eliminating a common leak point in the Corvette’s factory steering system, this makes the car feel tighter and more predictable.

Each Turn One steering rack is built with performance in mind, offering tighter internal tolerances and improved valving to maintain a consistent steering feel under load. The result is a steering system that remains predictable and confidence-inspiring even when paired with wider wheels, stickier tires, and upgraded suspension components. Even on a modern classic like a fifth or sixth-generation Corvette, the addition of a Turn One quick-ratio rack will net significant gains in steering response without sacrificing reliability or drivability.

As performance driving continues to push vehicles beyond factory limitations, steering precision has become just as important as power and braking. Turn One has the hardware to transform the Corvette’s already capable chassis into a sharper, more responsive machine when every input counts. With their quick-ratio C5 and C6 steering racks, Turn One delivers the kind of control modern drivers demand both on the street and at the track.
