UPR has one, as does BBK, and Ford Racing. It's just an idler that replaces the pump, you keep the same belt.

Keep the A/C and still go fast. Nothing better then sitting in the staging lanes in 90+* with a/c on blast. And still run 10s :happydrunks: :happydrunks:

will you actually make any more power without the a/c?

I thought the a/c didn't matter unless it was running?

Weight from the compressor and all the lines,etc.

ABout 25 lbs, and the clutch cycles on and off regardless if you are running it or not.

i had the Ford Racing A/C delete kit on my old 97 GT, the engine did rev a little quicker and easier. Not sure what benefit it gave me at the track but w/ the A/C delete, BBK offroad xpipe and 4.30 gears, i dropped from a 14.6- 14.0

I dont think the a/c delete had anything to do with it haha..

dod you go from 2.73s to 4.30s?

the o/r pipes on our cars are supposed to be worth like .3 tenths...and those gears are probably worth another .3 tenths

yeah...either way it was just feedback from someone who had a similar car and a similar situation
