What would cause me to have a turning issue. Turning farther to the right then to the left. Very noticable. Replaced everything except lower control arm and steering rack

Your sitting on the left side of the car it's an allusion kinda like the passenger mirror reminding you objects are closer? :devilish:
That's not the case. The alignment shop said that. And it sounds like the power steering binds up once it gets to a certain point.

I myself have unknown issues? This is serious now you didn't mention binding. I might get not come off well here...But put a new rack in it? I wouldn't drive it until it's fixed! Without me putting hands and eyes on it, hard to say otherwise? Seems like it skipped a tooth. Is it leaking? Have you taken measurements? Or is it just an observation? I will now take this seriously as should you.

I actually figured it out. Whoever owned it before me out a cold air intake on it. And it's been rubbing down into the tierod. Even driving straight. The boot on the power steering rack does leak I just learned. It will be next on my list
It will be next on my list
Did you run this down? Either way good to know your not crazy? The boot is more of a dust shield theres a seal within it on each side if one's gone the others right behind it. Do them both. I would think that a tie-rod end would win a rub down against the CAI. Depending again As long as your digging in. I wouldn't mess around. Not sure on parts availability but it will need to be aligned again maybe the shop would cut you a deal? Why not just tackle it at one time. You've come this far. :)

I feel like your tie rods would need to be angled up pretty severely to be rubbing on the intake. Are you lowered?
