It's not that simple. Non-power steering systems have different gearing inside so it can be operated without power assist. Simply removing the pump on a power-steering system will make the car almost undriveable. Don't try it.

I understand its not that simple. im trying to find a new gearbox that will support no power steering but i cant seem to find anything. Im taking it all out right to the box already as im doing an engine swap so its already out. Im just trying to find the new gearbox for the steering. anyone find anything or would recommend a car with no power steering that could be compatible to 2001 tiburon?

Removing the power steering isn't going to solve your torque steer problem. It has nothing to do with it.

There is no non-power steering box. Power steering was standard equipment.
