Hmm,
No A/C bracket.... No need for A/C underdrive pulley.... How many hp is that??

Want to save more??? Dump Power steering. My track car runs without it and I love it. Few more hp??

So I guess you just need the Alternator Underdrive pulley then.

All this should add up to 2+ hp!

BTW I am not try to be smart here just realistic.

Also does the alternator under drive pulley come with a belt that works for the No-A/C system as this would be a different belt from the underdrive system with AC right??

100! Heck, I dunno - but, I think the bigger benefit is all the weight lost (from the front and center)

Not sure - maybe I should "test" that

yessir - belts come in just about any size - heck, I bet there's even one big enough for Geo (let's see if he's listening) <img src="graemlins/xyxwave.gif" border="0" alt="[bigbye]" />

Does the 944 PS sap that much power?

I've been debating this.

Ouch!

Hey now, I'm working on my "set-up." I've taken about 3" off my belt size already.

I removed it since I broke the adjuster at the track once. It feel great without it and never put it back in. I saves weight, some albiet not much hp, and personally gives me a better feel of the steering.

Some guys run with it and some without. When you get you car runing you can try it both ways and see which you like better.
Me is no power steering.

No PS for me either and I LOVE it!!! Mine never had it to begin with, but either way, IMHO you feel a lot more of the road.

The only thing I think Paragon could improve on is the navigation of their parts. Sometimes its difficult to find stuff... also, I know you guys sell more than whats on your site!
