Amazing shop remodel. Congratulations. Shop work is even more fun in pleasant (and warm) surroundings. At least for me... Good decision regarding the power steering. You won't regret it. You will probably need to think about some way to turn down the boost so it's not too light. I know, probably not want you want to hear after the effort and $$ to add it. But often the standard boost is too much. Couple of approaches but they can be added later after you have a chance to drive it. For the Breeze offset bushings, that was definitely a thing on Mk3's and earlier. Everyone was chasing bump steer. This was before the FF 2-piece spindles basically eliminated it. Plus the PS mounts from that era were slightly off center. I had them in my Mk3 build and they worked as advertised. I put them in my first Mk4 and they adjusted out exactly centered so basically didn't do anything. I didn't put them in my second Mk4 or any builds since. FF fixed the centering issue. Bump steer is a non-issue. Confused about the comment that the kit uses rubber bushings. Not the case. The stock rubber bushings are removed and the kit includes poly bushings which have little/no movement. Won't hurt anything to put them in now that you have them. But I haven't found them necessary.
