depends on your climate. With this ridge of high pressure I'm regretting getting rid of the AC. Keep the PS, always nice.

I love PS...but on the other hand with temperature's being around 90 here daily (and that's nto even as bad as cali where it's like 105-110) I like AC

I marked both tho, b/c both is good...and with a stock D it doesn't seem like u'd be racing so power wouldn't matter that much...

you know what they say if you can't take the heat.. better keep you a/c, but i never used mine so it had to go. p/s however if you remove it, it'll be harder to turn than if it came to the factory with out it. the steering is designed for hydrolic pressure but whatevers clever.

The P/S depends on how much of a man you are. I run with out it on my 97 dx and it handles way better at high speeds. Its a drag cruisin through parking lots and stuff like that but if you wanna cruise faster you're not floaty.The air conditioning depends on how cool you like to be and what your climate is like.
