Steering expert for C7 needed
i like the soft/easy steering of my car in tour steering mode autocrossing, i run the car (shocks,ect) in track mode(mag ride z51). other than FEEL, am i giving up anything else? IM ASKING ABOUT( RATIO), in tour or sport steering mode, do i have to turn steering wheel further to take the same turn compared to track steer mode?

I'm not sure how long it will take for someone to answer you, but to find out in two minutes you could always turn the wheel one full turn (or half turn, etc...) in each mode and drive 10 feet and see if you end up in the same place --

The heated debate on this seemed to have reached no definitive conclusion in the thread below.
I personally believe the ratio varies on steering angle due to varying rack pitch (as post #3 in the thread below) and the assist varies on driving mode. The reason being we know there is full mechanical connection in the C7 rack (NOT steer by wire). In looking at the rack, I see no evidence of secondary actuation to alter the pinion/rack relationship in order to actively change the ratio, nor do I see a secondary gearbox. But still speculation on my part.
