Default Power Steering fluid cooler

I'm setting up for boost and want to know if I can get rid of/relocate this. As far as I can tell it's only purpose is to cool the PS fluid but how hot can it possibly get If I pull it, I'll just close the loop.

Let me know

as my point of view setting up an intercooler in front of the ps cooler line wont affect anything,,, and yes the power steering does get really hot, pulling the line will be something stupid due to the fluid getting hot and problably bursting inside of the rockand pinion seals... so try to work around it or relocate in between the radiator and conderser if any....... may as well pull the whole steering system out = less weight and less hp being taken by accessorie pullies

Not really worried about the few extra HP from losing the PS.... besides, the wife's gotta drive it It's not so much a matter of will it work behind the intercooler as it is that its in the damn way!!!!

Maybe you boosted guys can help me, what did you do????
