    Love the car man- i wouldnt add the AC back unless you really want it. If your getting belt slip then your belt is either worn out or you need a smaller belt. That ac compressor takes up a lot of room so my guess would be the latter. Im interested to see what your k20a can do with the aftercooler. I'll be in the same boat soon...

    without aircon belt route is minimal on the charger.. thats a new tight gatorback belt and its sliping only giving me 6psi boost from 7.8psi

    Did your belt get routed differently when it had the AC installed? That looks exactly like mine- except with your PS and JRSC tensioner you have like 20% coverage on the boost pulley- explains why it slips. The mercracing tensioner should fix that problem- i think his is designed for the rsx PS to offer max belt wrap

    im using the mercracing bracket that uses the oem auto tensioner .. that ps pump on top causes the problem.. easy way is put the aircon pump back.. only weighted around 7kg.. i can live with that don't have any other choice

    with aircon on belt goes down around waterpump and back up around alternator and down to aircon.. giving more grip on jrsc

    Ahh i see. Makes sense. Mercracing also makes a replacement tensioner setup if your interested.

    Shouldn't have broken like that.. all other mounts are perfect and upgraded

    Emailed Avid thought there mounts came with lifetime warranty.. he asked where i was in usa.. i said im in london UK and they never replied after that... maybe if i was in the US they would have sent me another mount..

    This is why removing P/S is so beneficial... belt routing is better
