Re: A/C Delete Nightmare!!!

anyhow, back to the topic, any kind of estimate on how much hp getting rid of the a/c compressor frees up?

that thing was pretty darn heavy and i imagine thats rotating mass that robs the engine of some power.

im not sure.. i think theres a rule of thumb like -100 lbs = +10 hp
so... ~2.5 hp? mabey more if the A/C is on?

Oh snap son, at least 30 HP.

i took the AC compressor out cuz it was a broken P.O.S.


ohhh i get it, you want me to just bypass it.

well to be honest, i think its safer to maintain the old belt route and i think it looks better not having a gaping hole in the accessory bracket (i'm gonna sell this car next summer)
