Power steering delete on BP4W?
I have recently purchased a few of the ingredients i will need to cuncoct my ideal of a perfect car. One issue i have run into is making room for my turbo. The power steering pump is too close to where i would like my compressor housing to sit. I found the bracket and pulley that is used in NA miatas that came without power steering, i also found the bracket for NB cars that came manual steering, however it seems that the only NBs that came with manual steering were 1.6l cars.
Has anyone come up with a solution to tensioning the AC belt without the power steering pump? Or does anyone know if the earlier bp bracket and pulley will work on a BP4W?

Savington has the right idea. Freeing up power is not why i want to get rid of the P/S. I am purchasing a DOC race manifold which will position my HY35 right on top of the PS pump, and on top of that manual steering feels better to me. Taking the AC off is an option but its one im not interested in. You say its wionter, its 75 degrees here and this is the coldest week of the year.
