Toe Angle vs. Tie Rod Turns
Does anyone know how much one turn of the tie rod adjuster changes the front toe angle for turbo tie rods?

IIRC, one full turn of one side changes toe setting by 4mm.

I will just add the obvious for future reference, turn both sides equal amount to keep your steering wheel centered. Or fix a non-centered steering wheel by turning each side different amounts while concurrently fixing the toe. Or if the toe is good but the steering wheel is off centered, turn each side the same amount in opposite directions (one side in, other side out).
