Alright, question is for a friend not me. She has a 92 Chevy Cavalier. this is exactly what she says:

 

"it's the one that goes around the a/c... I want to take the a/c compressor out of it so it'll run better... I have the belt, just not sure how to do it myself"

 

she wants to know how she goes about doing this..yeah so i dont know..any help and im sure she'll be thrilled

tell her to keep it on. The power gain from the reduced parasitic drag will be minimal, since when the A/C is off the pulley practically spins with no resistance.

 

Weight savings will be non-existent, unless she is stripping the car to its bare bones.

 

It would help her resale value if the car has A/C.

 

Lastly, venting refrigerant into the atmosphere is illegal.

 

(it should just be 4 bolts holding it on.)
