So you take out your AC just to race the car and then put it all back in for daily driving?

drive your damn car with the a/c installed...

why take it out?? to save a few pounds..... drop a turbo in your car or a supercharger...

why wouldyou sacrafice a creature comfort for performance? keep the a/c, your girlfriend and your mom would love you for it.... you dont know how much your gonna miss it till it's gone and temperatures hit a record high in both humidity and temperature....

what ^ said

it's your daily driver, leave it in.

I don't get it when people gut, and make their daily drivers so freaking annoying to drive to work for that extra tenth. But then, it's your car.

I would keep the A/C.. I live in So Cal and its gets pretty hot here in the summer (90s-100's) and I don't think I'd like driving around w/o A/C... it gets pretty hot in Florida too so I don't think you'd want to roll around w/ no A/C.... I would keep the A/C

You guys don't know **** about HEAT. I live in Phoenix, Arizona and it gets up to 122F here! I don't have A/C by the way...I think if your hardcore and your car is strickly track, Take it out, it will help without that high pressure freeon and u will drop a few pounds..But it's not worth it unless yoru hardcore...I personally would leave it in.Just think of it as an exchange of a few tenths of ur times.I could live with that, couldn't you?

If you can't decide, remove 20kgs of your interior, and drive around without using your A/C for a month, if you HAVE to use your A/C or feel inclined to use it.. then its not for you

at least it doesn't get up to ONE MEEEELLION% humidity there

I hate mid-south weather, 75 deg. at night and you still break a sweat because of the damn humidity. Gotta have A/C.

technically, it's summer in the bay area and i haven't turned on my AC in about a 6 weeks ever since i dropped in the turbo. i would take it out in a heartbeat except for when it starts raining my windows fog up to hell so i need AC to help defrost it.

Yeah, I'm near the Bay Area and where I live it never gets that hot. I kinda wanna take mine out, but it's a pretty big job.

If you had to ask this question then you should keep it. Florida is hot as hell, and I am very softcore when it comes to high heat and humidity.
