[QUOTE="Tourmax, post: 206929, member: 5304"] Not sure if this is what you may want to do, but have you considered going electric? you can buy a toyota electric ps pump, buy a proportional controller for 50 bucks and you’re up and running. the electric ps pump is good for around 5-10 hp at the crank. The electric motor only draws around 5-1 hp through the alternator. its a bit of a custom job though. Someone on the usa corvette forum has already done at least one. you’d at least need a shorter belt and I can’t say if the vette hoses will hook up to the toyota ports. nice thing about this way is your steering system is essentially unchanged. The pump is just driven by an elec motor instead of the engine. If tou loose your pump, your rack still works, albeit in a “non-power” mode. Its a fairly big job with a bit of figuin’ and fabricatin’, but I’m going that route as soon as I find an MR2 pump at a reasonable price. Already have the proportional controller. Ordered it out of the states... [/QUOTE]
