So, you'd need ~3/4 of a turn to change the tie rod by 1/16".

Wait, there's more...
When the tie rod turns, it changes the spacing between the rear portion of the wheels, and it is also changing the spacing at the front part of the wheels by the same amount. So I think you really only need to turn it ~3/8 turn to get the 1/16" toe-in change that you desire.
I am not 100% sure of this.
