A/c delete: 0-1hp, pulleys: 5-10hp.

The a/c delete is done for a 40lb weight reduction and a cleaner/less cluttered engine bay.

+ a warm interior if you live in FL.

between ac and my smog pump I pulled nearly 60lbs off the nose of the car. It also cleaned up the engine bay alot more also. I was just mad that the nose came up a tad, I couldnt believe that such a small weight would make a diff.

3 months out of the year in WA is not worth the weight reduction from pulling the A/C

if you pull everything out save it take a pic and send it to me, im thinking about putting a/c back in my car....

5-10HP at peak for the pulleys - less than that at the lower rpm you're using on the street 90% of the time. No gain (practically) for the a/c delete/air pump delete. Some reduction of weight with a/c - smog delete.

ah great...no power gains from the ac delete..now i have to add another sticker to compensate for the horse power i thought i picked up

If you've ever spun a disengaged a/c clutch, you'd know there's nothing to be gained there. With the a/c off, it just free-wheels.

i went this whole summer without it,
its already converted to 134a so should i just keep it on and recharge it later on??? I wont be using it here soon though...

I'm curious why you are interested in the 50# weight reduction and yet you bought a GT model

I say build a little more go juice to compensate and keep it cool.

Only you can make that decision foxfan....
