i took both mine out... you can make a loop for free with the old parts, just turn around the pipe (you'll have to cut it shorter) that goes to the ps cooler, and then take the tube that runs up to the ps pump, cut that open, and stick it on the pipe that you just turned around and cut... put a clamp on it... and it works just fine....

Like everyone else, I tried the "No PowerSteering Challenge" and since I drive it daily I didnt like it at all.

As for A/C I keep it in because I take pride in having a cushy, fast car, with all the fixin's (its blown out right now but about to be fixed)

But I also, sought after a touring model for the extra amemnities. thats my thing

I thought that once you remove PS and you loop 2 lines together it feels just like manual rack. I mean that's what i've been told. I like manual racks i had them on FC and it wasn't that hard at all.

Get rid of the over-assisted power steering only. Not only will the steering feel increase (you will be to feel the tires contact patch) but you will be able to have better control on the road and on racetracks. PS loop from crooked willow racing.

Keep the a. Why sweat it?
