Re: Eliminating AC

I dont think there is much of a hp increase. I believe it is simply a reduction in weight, and makes more room in the engine bay. I could be wrong though, I plan on doing this myself soon.

Re: Eliminating AC

I think the power increase is small but like stated above it gives you much more room to fiddle around with other stuff and a good way to shed some weight which is the two reason why I did it to mine.. that and the fact that I never use it anyways

Re: Eliminating AC

Opens up the bay and cleans up clutter greatly.

Just a 3" mandrel bend attached to the turbo intake via 'cobra coupler' with a length of pipe welded on and painted black w/a K&N universal cone filter.

It isn't a process you can hurry. You need to modify the alternator bracket to be your tensioner and then you'll need a shorter belt and it just goes down instead of to the A/C.

Yeah, MotorMouth from MN had done this when I bought it from him. I was searching for a mostly stock Typhoon when I came across his and there was a long list of mods I had planned to do right away with this being one. Since I didn't have to do it first hand I can't give any pointers about how it's done but I would imagine if you just take a look and start figuring what needs to go where you'll get some ideas with what needs to happen. Sorry I can't help any more but TYTILIDIE would be your man. He took some pics and got some specs from me on the completed project and did it all himself so he would probably be a MUCH better source for info on this. Good luck!

i need to know how to fabricate the alternator braket??

It's a universal threaded adjustment w/an eye-bolt on either end. I think TYTILIDIE has the measurements I gave him when he was doing his. Did you do this same thing or do something different?
