you're wanting to take something that's electric and has no draw on the engine.....and put a pump that's engine drawn onto the car??? and a rack/pinion setup?

makes no sense to me. unless you're doing hydro-boost braking and need PS to get it....even then you may as well run an electric vacuum pump...

makes no sense to me, it doesnt draw any power from engine and it's not a performance issue unless you like building your jackoff muscles....for you single guys out there....i'd leave it alone and get a bigger battery if you're wanting to buy parts for nothing...a PS rack and install could run you thousands...buy a nos kit with your extra $$$

Some people don't enjoy the feel of an over-assisted power steering system (*cough* the yaris system *cough*). It has nothing to do with machismo. Drive a car or two with a proper manual steering rack (or nicely weighted power steering setup) and you'll understand.
