Default Hello

Well hello.
I seem to be the new guy here who got past all the spam filtration, and I finally made it.
I figured this would be a good place for getting me "learned on all stuff's Subaru". I do know about mechanics, but on a bigger scale (was a Diesel mechanic years back for Caterpillar) but as far as Subaru's....I'm new to all of this after buying a stock 05 sti about two months ago. I'm loving it so far, except for the power steering......it leaks, whines, stutters and generally gets worse each day now. The drip worked up some smoke on the way home today...
So I guess I'm in a rush for a used pump. Or is there a better suggestion for a quick fix that anyone has dealt with if this is a common problem.
I did search all the other forums out there, but did not find anything about the p/s pumps on these, like if this is a common problem, or if they are a bullet proof unit.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!.... Really.

And since i'm the noob asking all these questions, please feel free to pick on me, ask me strange questions and generally harass me.....
