Default Steering

Hello All, i have a 1998 1.6ES model, i have just bought it and my steering is very heavy, it has power steering but i was wondering if this is normal with Civic's to have heavy steering. Is there any reason(s) why it feels very heavy?

Also, i would like to buy a new exhaust system and induction kit for it, any ideas?

thanks
