ok i search for a thread with this info and i didnt find my anything...ok soo here goes...i went to the track yesterday with my GS and did a best time of 10.55 1/8...will it improve if i take the p/s and a/c of the car??? i really never use the a/c but how will it be without the p/s? will it be really hard to drive? cuz its my daily driver....

do u think i can go low 10's if i take a/c and p/s off???


ohh and my mods r aem intake, dc 4-1 headers and an universal exhaust

thanks

 

You what notice much difference, or Any from the butt dyno, but it might improve Slightly your tenths.

They're both very straight foward in removing, I would msg padawan about his p/s removal kit.

 

You can probably run a little faster, but if its your dd you will be sacrificing comfort.

I have his kit, and I love driving without P/S. You have to pay a bit more attention on the freeway, but overall I really like the feel of the car with out P/S

Like I said, msg Padawan, he's the one that sells the kits.

It consists of the hosing, fittings, and a reservoir.


:edit: Here is the Actual link for the kit.

BTW, removing the PS system will free up some horsepower and drop a bit of weight. However removing the A/C will really only provide the benefit of further reducing weight because the A/C compressor's clutch keeps it disengaged when the system is switched off, thus there is essentially no parasitic loss.

Well again, removing the A/C system will reduce weight if that's what you're after. However, I personally wouldn't be willing to sacrifice the A/C for the weight savings, at least not on a daily-driver.

pm me price on a kit shipped to 92057

 

basic rule of thumb, you drop a tenth for every 100lbs you ditch from the car.

 

Just take off your p/s belt when you head to the track.I took my belt off and felt a little bit more power in the upper rpms.I put it back on for ease of daily driving.And since yours is a daily driver, just throw your belt back on when you leave the track.
