electric power steering pump

anyone have any experience with this? put an electric power steering pump in ther boxster? this gets an accessory off the engine and into the frunk. avoids all the melting issues from de heat. there are porsche-specific conversion parts for gt3 cup racing, but they cost $2k; i've read that some folks are using pumps off the toyota mr2 and vw polo. a cruise of ebay shows several options. sounds like a relatively simple conversion - fuse, 12v power that comes on w/ ignition, mount the pump, connect the much shorter hydaulic lines.
