yes... the engine revs just a bit quicker since it has one less pully to move. great for AutoX

it will will not even be noticeable, as the clutch type pulley is just free wheeling, not worth it at all for a DD car, if you are at the track for the whole weekend, you can swap this belt on.........if it makes your sleep better at night.

It's to keep the compressor properly lubricated. In theory, doing it should extend the life of your a/c system. It's a good idea... but I never remember to do it.
