Default Power steering question

Would a 99 Civic SI power steering pump and stuff fit on a 97 EK with 99 GSR swap?

Probably less than you would be able to notice without a dyno.

eh, either way, if youre driving a civic you really dont need power steering anyways. parking is a bitch at first but after awhile you'll start to hate power steering (or so i've heard). ive only been rockin the powerless steering for a few weeks now

2 yrs with out PS

the PS uses more inertia so to say and in a way it does take away from the motor. just like you say hey how does ac effect my motor, well it does.. just believe us!

plus handling is better without it
