S4 Power Steering with 13BRE

I have an S4. Putting a 13BRE into it. I want to keep power steering functional as well as A/C. Power steering, I'm not quite sure the best approach at this time.

I have an FD bracket and pump, a Cosmo bracket and pump, and the S4 bracket and pump.

Each setup has different pulleys/wiring. I can put the FD bracket and pump on and adapt the hoses, but what about the wire to the pump? S4 has a 6 wire stepper motor setup, FD has one wire labeled pressure switch or something.

Cosmo I don't even know where to start really as I haven't looked into that avenue much.

Thoughts? I've seen some info where people have used the FD pump, but no real details on wiring. Any feedback appreciated. Thanks.
