It is indeed rack and pinion and many other cars have a comparable system, from a point of view of specifications.
The light weight of the 911 front end means the cars may get by with no power assist. I think this is the single biggest factor. A lot of feel is lost when you add boost to the system.
I'm sure a dozen or so engineers will chime in shortly.
