Depending on which way you go, it sometimes is a pain finding the correct belt length. And the obvious... you delete a/c you no longer have it. Deleting a/c is really sort of a looks thing. It really isn't hurting anything having it but it looks better without it. Same goes for the smog. The more you can delete the cleaner your engine bay and engine look.

dont bother with a smog delete. just remove it and run a shorter belt. i took off my ac too just to clean things up and it looks way better.

weight

I weighed all the AC crap when I removed mine. 26 lbs

Considering I never use the AC and as mentioned the engine bay looks much cleaner without it, it's gone!

Smog delete... I don't think you save much weight or hp, but mine was gone when I bought the car.

26 pounds is 26 pounds i mean our cars arent light to begin with, plus you free up the rotational mass buy deleting a pulley.. and then add in teh smog pump throw the battery in the trunk and u probably just took pff 75 pounds( correct if im wrong)
