If you just want to fix it, looping it is fine. That sounds like the solution for you..

If you care about steering feel, get a manual rack.

I own a Honda with a looped line on an power rack and its not bad. I'd rather have it a little stiff than have to turn that bitch all day.

Well if you put in a slow manual rack and don't change the rack ratio, that's your fault. Looped back power racks are fine, yes, but they still suck for steering feel. Fine for a street car though, because steering feel doesn't really matter on a daily driver..
