Compare this to a WRX at 16.5 and STi at 15:1. I have a feeling it would take significant rework of the bits under the dashboard though, the electric motor on the column probably occupies a fair amount of space that's currently used by other things.
Chris,

The SVX rack ratio is 16.2:1.
The RHD JDM 4WS front rack is 14.2:1
