I'm currently running a 8v with a Turbo conversion and to be honest it takes up a bit of space and I'd like a bit more room in my engine bay ... So I want to ditch the PAS unit and run a manual steering system instead ! I've got hold of a complete set up off an S1 Rallye , so I just want know if it's just a straight swap job ? Or weather any other changes are needed ?

Think its a straight swap

tbh not much to get the rack out, if you have a turbo conversion and you dont it yaself then it will be very easy for you

inlet manifold, fuel rail and injectors off

pinch bolt from inside the car out and theres a clip on it too

track rod ends out (mark the position before taking them off)

undo the 2 pas pipes

think theres about 3 torx bolts that hold the rack in

thats about it oh and just top rip the pas motor and pipes out

simples

Yea I can do all the work no problem .... What I was looking for and i guess it was my fault for not writing it right ,what i wanted to know is will it effect things like tracking etc etc ? Do i need to alter it in any way

Once fitted you will need to get the tracking done yes
