Default Dumb question.......

Might as well ask this question.

How many of you guy that are running 1000rwhp +++ are keeping A/C? I just wanted to keep my A/C but it looks like my car is just going to be a track and street car I drive maybe 2-3 times a week. Is it worth keeping it? I mean I dont have ABS, or power steering now so..........


Another reason I ask is because it would be alot easier and look alot cleaner building the turbo kit.

Running 408ci with S91.


Like I said it might be a dumb question but I wanted feedback for those who are or are not doing it.

well I would say most dont keep their a/c, however I see from your sig you have a GTO, alot of the big HP guys on here are F-bodies, and the limitations are mainly due to size constraints, which from what ive seen is better in the GTO's

We kept AC with a S374 with a race cover on Dave's 05' GTO. This turbo is nearly the same size in physical dimension. So it can be done.
