I agree that the actual _hp_ gain is zero but trashing the compressor, that huge bracket, all the tubes, condenser and all that junk is easily about 100 lbs. You will feel the difference if you remove the setup altogether. Car will actually feel a bit lighter. They make an A/C delete kit that moves the PS pump down to where the A/c compressor is and makes a small brace between the PS and the waterpump. Dont get one of those stupid replacement idlers. If you're gonna remove something remove it.
