What is that tube in the front of the car for power steering do? I want to get rid of it or relocate it to free up some room for an intercooler but I don't want to get rid of power steering all together. It looks like 3' in the diagram

 

It's your power steering Fluid cooler, you could relocate it. Haven't done it myself, but seen it done for IC piping purposes.

 

just cooler for the ps fluid...

 

thats what I assumed, how hot does it really get?

 

power steering cooler

why relocate it? the point is to get air flowing through there to cool the fluid. Its in the its most effective spot as is.

Enough to need a cooler. Grab it sometime after driving around and you'll find out.

It is actually in the integra DC2 chassis, but its the same thing and I'm too attached to the prelude community to just wander over to the integra section to ask them. Im think I will be able to relocate it higher in the bumper, maybe above and just in front of the intercooler

then no air will get to it

 

just ditch the ps already

you're better off that way

 

I'm seriously considering it but it would be nice to have at least 1 car that has PS and A/C and maybe even cruise . My prelude doesnt have either and my turbo h22 civic doesnt have either and I am not a warm-weather person. When things start to heat up in the summer it gets rough. I might be forced on the manual rack conversion bandwagon. I think I'm going to feel someone elses PS cooler after they've been driving for a little while since none of my other cars have PS

You are such a dork

 

i simply unbolted my PS cooler from the verticle support and pushed it behind the support, instead of the front, which gave me the perfect amount of room for my IC
