Removing the A/C will give no hp gain since it shuts off and spins freely at WOT. The only gain is less weight.

When the A/C is off it is basically an idler pulley. I was thinking about getting rid of it while I was taking everything apart on my motor anyway, but decided not to. Is any of the A/C conections in the way when doing LTs?

Then where do the gains come from on electric water pumps? I have seen that they are good for 8 or so at the wheels.
