Anybody know a company thatmakes a 12.5 or 12-1 steering rack for 4th gen?

Ive been looking around, and Im having a little bit of a tough time finding a steering ratio of around 12-1, right now my car has 16.9-1, Yikes!! and it suxs to autocross cause you turn it so much its more like parallel parking then turning, so whats the lowest around, whats the best ratio I should use, and what company makes it.

I don't know the ratios, but give these guys a call. Lots of autox and track day guys run their stuff to keep the fluid from overheating.
