Where can I find a guide to removing powersteering? And if I remove it will it clear all of the lines that clog up where a fmic licp would go into? What are the pros and cons of getting an act 6 puck or 4 puck race disc? I want a disc that will last and never slip when driving(of course this is open to argument). The talon will be putting down around 390chp. I heard that partial-face discs cause driveability issues, but I want to here complains/praises first hand. Thanks guys~Brandon.
 
removal of the power steering is easy just take off the pump and all of the pwer steering linesand the resvoir, one of the lines(the return line at the rack and pinion )just slides onto a nipple fitting the other screws into the rack,this line you will have to cut off about a inch from the rack so you can take a piece of hose and loop the line connections gether so you wont get dirt and stuff in the rack n pinon ,i drove my car like this for a while till i found a manual rack n pinon from a 1.8 n/t and swapped to the manual rack and i will say that from at a stop when the power steering rack was still in my car it was a bitach to turn the wheel but after the manual rack swap it's now much easier.i dont know how inclined you are as far rack and pinon swaps but it was not as bad as i thought it would be and only took about a hour on my car but then again i dont have a a/c compressor or the factory manifold taking up space on the back side of the engine anymore...
