    go without it....youll see what i mean. without p/s you get a much better feel of the road...more responsive steering...therefore power steering is a false sense of security...just like anti lock brakes!

          get your car up to like 50 on a road
          put it in nuetral
          turn your car off
          coast around
          PS will be off so you can simulate how it will be.
          uh... if by overboosted you mean "right the fuck on" then, sure, it is.

            I wouldn't be surprised if some idiot tried it, turns the key back too far and forgets to put it back to "ON", gets his steering column locked and runs right off the road or into someone else.

            If you try this MAKE SURE you don't go back too far. Kick your key back into the ON position right away. You should only need to back out of it long enough (one second or so) for the engine to stop rotating.

              its not that bad, i removed it on my car. it takes some getting used to, and some muscle when you have to turn it from lock to lock or something like that.
              personally, as far as handling goes, i preferred it over having power steering. you have a better control over it (IMO) and it's less twitchy (18s and negative camber makes for a twitchy ride at interstate speeds)

                or just do the intelligent thing and pull the P/S belt off..

                    I weigh 100lbs and can lift barely my own body weight, but no power steering in the CB7 is no problem even to me.

                        as long as you have full tire pressure, its easy as hell. unless you're weaker than a 5 year old, you will be fine.

                            Have to disagree on this one. I don't see why it's removed in the first place.
