yes you need the p54 bracket so that the stock civic a/c compressor bolts up to the bracket and to then to the motor correctly.. no you dont need and you can use the stock b16 a/c mount as a tourqe mount if you even use them and i would suggest using both tourqe mounts.. and shortening the belt has nothing to do with it, althought it may be needed, the p54 bracket allows the compressor to be bolted on saftley

 

You only need the p54 munt if you want to keep the a/c
