Default Chrs1313 a/c vs non a/c version

I've been thinking about buying one of the kits but I'm torn between leaving my a/c and not. The car is mainly a track car but I do still ride it on the street and the 2 hours to the track so on hot days the a/c makes it a little less miserable. How effective is the a/c version vs. non a/c version. I've always thought go big or go home but if its not going to give me any more performance I'd just keep the a/c. Also right now I'm running a SLP scoop with an unsealed lid and my IATs got over 100 within a few seconds of idling so if nothing else I need to seal the front of my box but will I see again going from the SLP to the a/c version once the box is sealed?

I live in south Louisiana and ditched the AC almost 2 years ago due to a fragged compressor. It really isn't bad at all. You get used to it.

I'd personally go with the Non-AC version. My car is daily driven as well.

I believe they "claim" about .1 with the AC and up to .25 in the non. Seems pretty believable from the results I've seen.

A/C is nice, but if your trying to get everything out of the setup delete it and go with the 1313 non A/C version to get the best results.
