i have had my p/s off for about 2-3 years now, no problems, it was a little tough getting used to it, but it maybe gained or freed up some hp, but mainly the control, you have precise control over the car, as much as you turn thats how much the car turns. I wouldn't give it up for anything, remove it and get used to it, its tough but gets easier, i just removed the whole system.
