Power Steering Delete/Removal/Tuck
I have seen a few tCs with deleted or tucked power steering.
Can someone provide a list of things/parts that are necessary to delete the power steering?
Also, If I just wanted to hide the resevoir behind the engine rigth near the power steering pump is this possible? Would it be ok to have the resevoir that low?? Any tips/hints/help is welcome. Thanks.

well first off...
why?
are you doing this for looks or to free up HP?
because if its to free up HP, just stop. its not even worth it.
and have you ever driven a car with no power steering?

If you eliminate the power steering its going to be much harder to turn than a car that was designed without power steering (like your CRX). The gear ratios in the rack on a car with power steering are lower than one without so you don't have to turn the wheel as much to go to lock.

I am not deleting it - simply moving the resevoir to the back of the bay next to the power steering pump itself. I just wanted to know what other people have been doing
Do you have any pic of your setup? why would I have to buy longer hoses? Im going to hook it up right where the pump is shouldnt they be shorter? Or does it have to be at the same height in the bay as it was before?

Its closer to the pump making the hoses shorter in my case?? I couldnt take a picture considering my engine is out but I will show a picture when it is complete
