I'm not Vin, but get rid of it.....it will clear up the engine bay, saprk plugs can be reached easier, and I like how you feel the road more than with PS.

Its a little bit more difficult to turn the wheel when you are not moving or if you are moving really slow like in a parking lot. Its not killer though. You'd get used to it. Most people like the feel of the car so much after removing the PS pump, they don't mind the extra tension at lower speeds.

If you want to do it the right way you would go pick up a manual rack from a junk car and swap it over.

They cap them so some fluid stays in the lines if it didnt the rack with no fluid and is more likely to seize up.
