me again. a quick check of ebay shows that the jobber vendors are touting the dfi part as the same as the 986 part, so this idler pulley bracket should work:

Welcome to BGB Motorsports

which means i can run without a/c or ps pumps. $250 for the bracket + $100 for a used boxster power steering rack to convert to manual (+ install cost). save a few pounds, gain a few more hp, more road feel, get arms as big as tree trunks ...

King, my power steering recently failed and I had "manual" steering for a couple of weeks including a day at the racetrack. This provided tons more feedback(!) but my entire upper body got quite a workout.
