Meh, after having driven cars with and without power steering, I can honestly say I prefer it without (at least for lightweight cars, never tried driving a heavy car with manual steering).

Alot of guys like the Se gear box without using the p/s portion of it. I have had mine disconnected for some time and the feel of the road seems to be enhanced. Power steering is nice but on our cars being so light it's not a real major problem without it. And the se boxes are much better than the earlier models.
