Really the only reason for the kit is for looks. If your lookin to squeeze a few extra ponies out, just bypass it.

you get 0hp from an ac delete. the ac compressor doesnt produce any drag when not on. and if the ac is on, the clutch cant engage at wot anyways so still doesnt produce drag. it gets rid of weight and cleans up the engine bay a little

No, just bypass the whole thing with a shorter belt. It'll look alot cleaner if you get a delete kit tho, your choice.

hey thats not a good idea we bypassed my friend 88 and we went back 3 times for belts becuses it rubbed under the tensioner so i think a freee pully or an a/c delete is a better choice

I was just talking to Adder about this, because the pullies are a little difference on the SN95s, i dont think you can just bypass the pulleys in the fox bodies like you can in ours. I could be wrong though.
