Default New Power Steering setup

So I have a small high pressure leak with the CTS-V and the thing will boil fluid in anything more then normal traffic. Instead of trying to figure out the leak i'm just going to replace everything.

So I bought a new power steering pump from turnone, Buying a new reservoir and a new cooler With all AN fittings and lines to go along with it.

Make sure to buy high quality AN fitting. Mine just started dumping fuel, its less than a year old too.

Might cost a bit more but these are pretty cool.

My plan is to have the high pressure line made for me (not sure if I trust myself for a line that has 1800 PSI)

Not sure where I'm going to get the AN fittings yet.

Ya those look sexy, Not sure if i need the quick disconnect for this, but I might want to keep all the connectors the same and I can see using them for the oil cooler lines. so i'll dig into them a little more. Thank you

A better cooler should be more than enough to fix your problem.

Boost, because sometimes atmospheric pressure just isn't enough.

True I might be able to get away with just a better cooler, but there are tons of people that still that is not enough for this car.
