My brother lives in los Angeles, so I can understand some days get aweful hot, but not too many. Ditch it and enjoy the car. I understand an extra 40-50 pounds won’t make a huge difference in a 3,500 pound car, but every pound counts, hopefully.

Well on this car it’s 40-50lbs in a 3100 lbs car, but still no big difference. The 3 stage dry sump that requires ditching the AC is actually more $. But it’s also a better system. I’ve got my mind made, I’m going that route and ditching AC.

I just need to talk to the dry sump company about a few questions I have.
