Steering ratio for FD

What is the steering ratio for FD?
this thread says 16.6:1, 2.9 turns lock to lock:
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=293696

this thread says 15.0:1, 2.9 turns lock to lock.
https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...light=15.0%3A1

So, which one is right?
Isn't 16.6:1 a bit slow when Evo has 13:1 with 2.1 lock to lock and S2000 has 13.9:1 with 2.4 lock to lock?
