Default power steering?

I want to see how many people here actually have power steering in their cars.

Post up!

Currently, I don't have any, I bought my car and it didn't have it with the d15b. Curious to see what others have.

My 1996 Honda Civic EX no longer has power steering. I have a rebuilt rack from a CX in place of the hydraulic mess.
I realize a 1996 Honda Civic EX is not a 1992-1995 Civic, but figured I'd pitch in.

Not a fan of PS. I think you feel the road more w/o it.

I had power steering in my EX, but I bought a stealthmode delete kit. I personally like the manual feel better. It took about 2 weeks to forget I once had power steering though =P. The only time you realize the help of power steering is in the parking lot honestly.

power steering at higher speeds on the track makes me feel nervous...a small movement on the wheel feels much more drastic with PS

15 HP yeah right. Im guessing its prob around 2-4hp if that, maybe 3hp but then theres also the weight factor and the bay looks cleaner but thats it.
