eliminating A/C 850

850s are not what I'd consider to be a good "race car" by any means BUT if weight is the issue, the AC system doesn't really weigh THAT much and it's weight won't make any real difference. The AC compressor pulley doesn't rob measureable HP either with the AC off.
The ONLY good reason IMO why anyone might want to remove the AC compressor is if the unit was siezed otherwise it's not worth the hassle.
