Im building a turbo kit for my d16 and i was wondering whether the gains from taking out my a/c would be worth it or not? or

 

if you have a turbo, the few HP the AC robs won't make a difference. The question is can you fit it in there...

i would keep the A/C but i live in CA.

 

does it get really hot there in Colorado? if not then ditch it..if so then keep it...

 

i would keep it, ive had cars with a/c and without and in the summer i really liked having the option

 

good option to have keep that **** if it fits

 

I'm losing mine, but thats just because i want an equal length manifold instead of a log or shorty.

 

well im putting in a 16g, so i think the main reason is for clearance issues.

 

I agree- with the amount of hp u will be getting a couple that is taken away by a/c wont matter-

 

i took mine out, i never used it anyway. engine bay looks a lot cleaner now, saved 50 lbs, and got 1hp
if you use it a lot, keep it in.

 

u have a choice. my **** is comin out because it wont fit.

 

A well rounded modded car would deserve a/c. The loss of h/p would really be nadda. Im a little North of you and after swapping in the r motor I had every intention of putting a/c in. Hell I even had to buy all the a/c parts lol. But I never installed it.

 

I just went through the hastle of putting A/C back onto both of my Honda's. One is boosted and the other is not... I have been living on Oahu, but me and the wife are moving back to the burbs in Phoenix so had to hook it up with the A/C....

AZ desert summer heat kills with no A/C... oh, and turbo's love the heat too

Yeah when someones mention's going to Az. thats never been there before I tell em to turn there oven on to 400 degrees and once temp is reached to open the oven door.

That blast of hot air that hits you.....get used to it.

 

I guess ill decide for sure once I get the turbo fitted on there to see the clearance and then go fom there. thanks for the advise.

 

You live in colorado, the only thing you are going to lose is cold air blowing into your face! The heater should still work though

 

your in CO **** ac

There's no humidity there. I was in Breckenridge in July and it hit 86F (hot in Breck) one day and it was nothing.
