    power sterring pump upgrade

    I recently did the Z3 steerig rack conversion and found out my steering pump cannot keep up when doing lock to lock turns at the autocross. The guy at zionsville told me I should replace my pump since it has over 400k miles on it. I need a second opinion.

    1) Is there an upgrade I can do to fix this problem
    2) should I buy used PS pump for around $50
    3) should I buy a rebuilt pump for around $150
    4) or am I screwed
