that's what I said! They also said something about replacing the pinion.
IDK...but anyway! The car is as good as new now!
Learned my lesson! Not a car to be fooling around in...that's what turbo civics are for!
Thanks for all the help, opinions, comments, and thoughts!
Much appreciated!

UPDATE:
Okay, so I took the car to the dealer last week on Wednesday. No word from them until Tuesday of this week. What they told me was that "a metal piece inside of the PS pump disintegrated, metal went through the hoses and all through the engine." Long story short...they estimated the damage to be close to $5000!
There is no way I could afford that, so i picked the car up on Wed. and took it to this place in Herndon. My mom and I talked to the guy that owns the shop, and he called yesterday saying he was going to replace the pump and do some other things that needed to be done, I dont know how much it'll be yet though. So, I'm going to pick the car up in about an hour. Just wanted to let everyone know what's up. Be back after I pick the car up.

Replace the pump & flush the rack & hoses. Bloody dealer crap. Stay away from dishonest dealers.
