I was wondering how much HP & TQ the air conditioning and power steering are taking away, while working ? I'm currently rebuilding my engine and I'm thinking of removing the A/C compressor, radiator and related hardwares. I know it will shave some lbs but would it worth it HP wise ? As for the P/S I wont removed it but I'm curious to see how many ponies it take away from us.

Thanks

under WOT, the AC disengages, so 0 for it. Not sure about PS.

 

LOL I cant help but laugh, this is one of the funniest questions ive read here. Why? Because you bought a maxima, a semi luxurious midsize family sedan, not a CRX.

Might as well not have the oil pump hooked up either.

Seriously though its gonna make as much of an impact as putting a catback or a UDP on....

 

does it really? so anything under 100% throttle it is taking power?
