Power Steering pump: pressure increase effect?

My power steering pump has a scored vane cylinder and generally has reached the end if it's service life. It is rated at 95bar.

I have sitting in front of me a gift: A new Mercedes ZF pump rated at 110bar.

Now the obvious question: if I fit the 110bar pump how will it effect the steering? I would not mind slightly lighter steering and the PS high pressure hose is new and should hold the pressure. I would like to give it a try before sourcing a rebuilt or junk yard 95bar replacement.

Comments and suggestions will be appreciated.

Regards,
bobf.
