Default a/c removal

I was wondering if I should remove my a/c in my 95' civic dx. I never use it, so I figured why not. how hard is it to remove?..what should I do first. how do I take it out? Is the power gains really worth it?


P.S., I tried searching and found nothing...thanks for the help

I could not imagine living anywhere that doesn't require air conditioning ever.

How is it? =P

NH doesn't really need a/c....its 50degrees outside right now ....but if I do need it, I just roll down the windows.....I'll find away to take it out from haynes or something, hopefully I can get this done this week, but ya...I believe it just needs to be charged....and if I get it all together, I can proably ship it out, just keep in tocuh if you want it, my e-mail is intial_driftAE86@hotmail.com

if it doesn't work, pull it out. otherwise i would keep it. no sense in getting rid of it if its in good working order.....unless it will pay for some new mods, lol.

No AC? Doesnt it get all hot there in summer?
Whatabout when it rains and the windows fog up?

I dont know. I NEED mine here in Iowa.

not that hard, depenting on what you remove and if you want to get at the thing in the dash which I cant remember if its the evaporator or the condensor. I think its the evaporator but I can never remember.

ive removed my a/c well kinda had to with the turbo and all, but i just turn the fan on when the window fogs up and roll down the windos a little, and there fine, but before you start anything you need to drain the system, and DONT DO IT YOUR SELF, its toixc as ****.... so go to a shop and ask them to just drain it.. and then yank it..
