you can always swap in the se steering rack! that's gives you the quicker ratios and better feel, and you could probably keep the same power assist as the base.

Totally manual doesn't bother me in the slightest. I really don't see why a 2200# car even needs power assist. I have driven many in that weight range that were not assisted and had no issues.

If you pull the fuse, are you still fighting against the electrical assist, increasing the effort sort of like a hydraulic assist with a bypassed pulley? Or does the electrical system just go into neutral?

Is the assist from an SE retro-fittable to an L? That might be the easiest although certainly not the least expensive fix. The boneyards aren't exactly full of Yaris SEs
