Most people wouldn't have a clue an auto is in it, I wouldn't worry. To me, you'd be crazy to take it off. It's not going to make a difference. Go rent a track, make a clean pass with it on and make a pass with it off. I bet you won't see any significant difference. If no significant difference, leave it on!

I need to drive with my hand out of the window deflecting air into the cabin to get any wind inside the car if the ac is off.


Well I was somewhat kidding about the 2 down 65 comment, but you have a red wheel wich cools the car an automatic 10 degrees anyways so no worries there.

Sal does your current set up allow you the option to run a shorter belt to bypass the A/?. Try that and see if it makes a difference before removing the unit completely.
Thats and another 5 psi of boost.

Actually that one I brought to the race was a single speed cruiser so I could travel around and take pics, but who's counting.


Besides riding a bike is good for you and the environment.

Never keep the laundry packed. Never

150 - 200k invested (at least), This is the second set of twin turbos you had in the car, right? you ripped all that out and installed another set. Then did the tranny thing. Then this winter you had the car 4 sale. the thing runs 7 sec, leave it in. Why do you have this complex about being number one, move on.

i dont see it as a complex... but to run high 7's on 93 is VERY impressive... he is very goal oriented... how many people can say they have a 7 second street car....
edited. was wrong about the pump gas. it was late and was working on pulling a trans.

And why do you have such an abundant inferiority complex about what other people do to make their cars faster? You make it sound like him doing those things made your business go bankrupt.

I guess he could sell A/C unit if he decides to take it out on e-bay as "Worlds fastest Viper driven A/C unit" to make up some $$$.

After that incredible post, do you feel like a man or an internet stalker?

The car is still for sale. Are you interested?

I believe everything is for sale. We all have a price for our various toys. Just a matter of how bad someone wants them. I watched a racer sell his car a month ago that "wasn't" for sale. That's how the conversation started. 75k later he sold it less motor/tranny
