ask me, you're trying to make a complex system work in a simple vehicle. why make things more complicated than they need to be. less components equals less chance for failure.
also, the MR2 is a lightweight rear engine 2 seater sports car. i bet a fully set up cruiser weighs twice as much. will the steering pump produce the kind or pressure and flow you need to work properly in a trail rig, especially something that might go in the rocks?!
don't get me wong, i'm all abut figuring things out and making them work. without people like you who have their own ideas and actually make them work we would'nt make a whole lot of progress. but i also think that we should pick our battles wisely.

I have been over this before but...
1) the mr2 pump puts out 2000 psi on high. About 400 psi higher than any engine driven performance pump.
2) while the mr2 pump has a crazy mtbf I still want it to last a good long time and it makes no point to run the thing on high all the time sucking down all those amps when I only need it at slow speeds when turning. And no I don't want to have to turn it on and off manually when I can have it do that for me as it was designed and have a manual override to turn it to high when I am offroad.
3) Have you seen what I am doing to my truck? Seriously go read the build up thread then come back here and tell me I am crazy like everybody else.
4) It wasn't that hard for me to figure out the wiring so while it maybe complex for some, for me it seems fairly simple.
When I get done doing my testing on it I will put up very easy to follow instructions but if you can read a wiring diagram you should be able to figure it out on your own.
