I'm surprised how many people have it deleted. I expected the results to be in favor of keeping it much higher.

I live in South Louisiana. Don't tell me about "hot and sticky"

I deleted mine in favor of the non-AC chrs1313. I never missed it. Once you get used to NOT having AC, it's not a big deal at all.

And I'm sure you've heard me say this before, but you can hear that thing sucking air. It's massive, and it flat out works.

If you have a mildly built street car, leave it. Any kind of track car, yank it. Having a second vehicle with the creature comforts makes the decision a lot easier though.

A/C is staying in my car. A/C and over drive are the 2 things I will never give up. Makes turboing hard so look likes nitrous is the answer for me. Only way I would consider pulling it is if it didn't work.

I believe the Chris 1313 AC compatible claims to pick up 1.0-1.5 mph in the quarter and the non-AC version picks up 2 mph. It's been a while since I saw the claims, so don't quote me, but if that was the only difference I'll be going with the AC version. From what I hear, though, both work very well

Deleted mine years ago and never missed it. Last winter I removed the dash and pulled all the A/C out and installed a block off plate in the fire wall. Passenger side plugs are now easier to change than the driver side, I think it took me 40 min to do all 8 plugs last change.

Mines gone. It gets humid here in East TN but I never used it anyways. Much easier to build a turbo without it.

Yanked the A/C out this past weekend and installed the chrs 1313. All I can say that thing SUCKS. The butt dyno is very happy.
Can't wait for spring!
