my aircon has been deleted, but it's not a road car (at least not dedicated)...
I'd never do it personally if it was my road car - it only saves about 10kg (i'd guesstimate), and as for load on engine, meh... the compressor disconnects and freewheels at full throttle anyway afaik

Removed mine on the Hawk only because I hated the configuration , engine looks much better without / also my pipe work & oil cooler sit nicely with no air con rad , it’s just a messy clap trap with it installed , I do agree with the demist tho , but as for to hot in ( summer ) come on its uk not Bahamas. Your choice tho

On a hot day or after an slightly spirited drive putting the air con on as it turns the second fan in is a good way of bringing down engine temps , plus it would be nice in summer to keep a bit cooler , removing the air con rad would help airflow but that is more directed at a track car , your choice

Thanks for all the replys folks
I don’t use the a/c at all but taking the route of just replacing both belts this weekend as the a/c one is worn costing £15 for both belts instead of deleting the a/c
The spec c roof flap mod is definitely one of the best mods I’ve done for sure
if it’s not raining it’s open

I suppose you could always switch the aircon off & then open the roof flap.Same difference.
The roof flap wont work when you need it most........sitting in traffic.
Sounds like a retrograde step to me.

When did we start using Delete instead of remove!
Delete is something a computer does, remove is something a person does.
Also why pay 50 quid for something when all you need to do is unscrew and remove the AC pump??
The mind boggles.
