Are you guys trying to make the car faster by taking the AC off or the AC will not fit with the B18 engine inside.

 

A lot of peolple just dont want to put it back on, dont have the right a/c bracket or just wan to save a littlle HP. I personally dont care if I have a/c . I actually have the right a/c bracket but just never installed it. LAZY ME!!

 

the hell with no A/C I made sure to keep both P/S and A/C when I did the swap.. come on it's not like I'm going to see a road course anytime soon and well a 1/4 mile is only a 1/4 at a time .. and also cali is to damn hot not to have it for the girls when your on the cruise

 

I want to put A/C in my swap. but my car never came with A/C and I am wondering how to do it...

 

No A/C = faster hybrid

I never had PS (CX) and my car *used* to have A/C. I really didn't feel like using the A/C because I only used it when it was REALLY hot outside and it rarely gets over 90 here in Nebraska. Sometimes it feels hotter because of the humidity, but I can always drive my ITR on those days.

 

drive with the windows down

 

Honestly i was just Lazy!

 

AC? bah! too much weight!

 

Same here. I could care less about power steering with 17" bi's. I have the right a/c bracket too, just need the rest of the parts.

 

i dont have ac either(93 DX) my windows fog like a motha, but im gonna try buying some of that defog for windows, anyone know if this stuff works? id jus roll down my windows, but its in the rainy season so id get a little wet...

 

90% of the Hybrids out there don't have both AC and power steering after the swap simply because allot of shops don't know what other Honda cars to source the parts from (i.e. AC bracket). It is a tight fit to get all of it in there, but when it is done right it is a testament to a job well done.

The other reason is simply because allot of Civic owners didn't choose to put in the dealer installed AC option at the time of purchase. Usually, owners of these cars don't put in the factory AC after the fact or they are left with a not so good aftermarket unit (at least from my experience it's not as good as OEM).

 

The Del Sol B16 motor mount has provisions for the EG compressor.

-who has ordered 3 from the Honda dealer.. and had to explain why to the parts counter d00d.

 

Please elaborate on this.

 

P30 B16 Del Sol front lower motor mount ((94-?)?) will work on the "B" block and the EG a/c compressor.

~$100 maybe?

**** AC.........weight/loss of HP.

 

P54 B16 del Sol for 96-00 Civic. I like mine just fine thank you.
