The only drawback I see to having powersteering is the occasional lapse in it. As in transition from one slide to another you can feel the wheel speed up and slow down as the powersteering can't keep up with the rotation of the wheel. Though I have an ancient car, I prefer my powersteering. I've driven both my AE86 with powersteering and Harrisons (also owns the Integra) without it. The steering feel is better than mine but not to such a degree that I'd consider removing it. In my opnion my car feels easier to control during a slide, though the lapse in the powersteering can get a little annoying.

My buddies Integra didn't have powersteering and steering feel was awesome up until the limit was reached. Doing a burnout the car would be fine but any change in the wheel's postion would send the steering wheel spining insanely fast in the direction the wheel was slightly turned.

Anyone care to let me in on the differnce between powersteering and power assited streering? I'm guessing power assited only works when you need it?
