but in your case, you have manual steering. all you need is to get a power steering rack and pinion, power steering regulator, and the lines and that canister thing where you put fluid, and also the power steering belt. but DONT DO IT!

but for EGs... you will HAVE to change apart its cross member/ subframe in order for it to fit correctly.

i just did an alignment today, my steering wheel does not feel much of losse steering from each turn 20 degrees off no more. it feels more of 10 degrees off though, but when i asked the mechanic that did my alignment. he said 10 degrees is fine for free play because for manual, it needs its movement when you steer at its post of where you need to be like for instance; parallel park. but other than that. my steering is super firm and its a bitshhh to turn, but i feel wayyy more power to the motor and yet i get a workout. LOL.

Google can answer a lot of questions. Especially considering they've been asked and answered before.

The only other part that you will need to get, if I recall, is the "u-joint" that connects the yolk from the steering column to the yolk on the rack. The "yolk" (the cylindrical part that has serrations) is different on the manual rack as opposed to a power one. I believe it is a smaller diameter on the manual. I had to go to the dealer and went through 3 of them before I got the right piece.
