Depends on the model.
I assume because you're asking in here, that you are referring to the 1st gen... The answer is no. 1st gens have a recirculating ball type setup, which if you do a quick search you'll find most people don't like.
2nd and 3rd gen 7s do have rack and pinion.

I do not find a lack of road feel, my big complaint is turning radius is now much larger.

I definatly don't think the $550 price tag is cost effective for kit, but I've talked to two people who think that's a killer deal, so I guess it's all in the eye of the beholder. The problem with my 7 is that It's to hard to turn the wheel with the 225 Hoosiers on the front. I don't want to switch to a 15:1 ratio rack when it's nearly impossible to turn fast times with the 18:1 rack I have now. The benifit's I see to the VW conversion is I should be able to run PS with the newer rabbit rack. I'm not to worried about radius, since my tires restrict movment anyways. It sounds to me like this is a good mod for race cars, but probably not worth the money for street cars. I can't wait to see how you like it on the track Dragon.
