No no thats not true yuri, the last time we hal -10 C was like 10 years ago global warming FTW!

Removing the ac compressor, condensor lines and radiator, how much is this? 60Lbs?

I think its smarter to remove the a/c while going turbo because you lose the a/c radiator thats in front of the oem radiator. better cooling?

Dude, we had -10 degrees 1 week ago at 01.00 at night when I was driving home.
I guess the winter in southern Holland is less cold ?

We go on vacations with the car so I would never drop the AC. And 60 lbs, so what? It's not a track car anyway.
I even have 2 subs and 2 amplifiers in the trunk..

-10 degrees!? haha nop we dont have that in limburg

but with all that extra power what difference does 60lbs make...

but i guess it's better for the oem radiator to have better cooling without the a/c radiator blocking it

Yup, it was installed yesterday. They sent me the wrong converter so we had to make one ourselves
The heating pipes were also in the way so they were moved a bit, the bracket changed.

There is an issue with the brakes, after that is resolved we'll take it for a spin and see if the problem is solved.

Did you port the hole in the manifold as well or just got an 38-44mm adapter plate?

I did order an adapter plate but they sent me the wrong one
So we had to make one ourselves.

The Manifold is not ported, see how this turns out first before we go that route.

Tested the car yesterday, no boost creep at all anymore

Why does inlinepro sent out their kit with a wastegate that's just too small?
