Just rip that shit out and enjoy the extra horses from reduced weight of about 17kg all up.

Plus u can whack your coolant tank where the aircon used to be like i have.

Can you also do diagnostics?

I had mine regassed last summer in January and now its back to suck. Can you diagnose a AC gas leak or a dead compressor?

they normally put dye in it when you have a leak and charge you a stupid amount for it too. Half the time doesnt do shit.

From memory Natrad did my wrx for around $100.
