IVE REFUSED TO EVEN TRY AND STEP ON IT AT ALL SINCE IT HAPPEND AND PUTTING IT AWAY UNTIL I CAN GET IT DYNO / TUNED (THE RIGHT WAY)
Good idea not to beat on it but i'm sure you could still drive around while not in boost.
That's how i drive my Cobra cuz once the 20lbs of boost hits you better get out the way

Well he was partly right about the hydro boost. The power steering pump is used to provide pressure for both the P/S and the brakes. It is not vacuum, it is pressure! If the engine stalled, it would make the steering hard and the brake pedal hard after a few strokes. Also if the belt broke the P/S pump would not spin, or if you drove through a puddle, it would cause the belt to slip on the pullies.
