you could use the saxo/106 pump and just get pipes made to suit but it takes up alot of room and usually means moving the battery to the boot, you could also but a plate of the likes of chris astley and fit the pas pump off the engine which is the simple option, other then that you could get a rack and motor from a corsa with eps and retro fit it
