For summer weather? If I understand correctly, you are suggesting modifying your car so it will be tough to steer and it will likely overheat. Are you serious? (Sounds to me like we're 'being had'.)
Don't freak man

Have you ever driven a car- especially one this small- without power steering or with the power steering disabled? No? I have and it's no big deal. Increased effort may be noticeable at parking lot speeds but above that it's virtually the same.
