Aslong as you get hold of all the right parts yes you can can i ask why you want to put it back in ? also why was it removed to fit aftermarket turbo set up ?

cheers nick

It's a car my brother is looking at buy he likes to have comfort aswell previously driving an audi s3 lol

Not sure why it was taken out in the first place maybe it increases hp? If you could shed information on why it would be beneficial to remove it would be great

[akyakapotter]

weight saving less stress on the engine and as above to make more room for different turbo set ups

[ashep91]

Does it increase engine power? Or help increase it?

You won't increase power by removing it. It can drain power when it's turned on, but removing it won't increase power - you could just leave it turned off all the time instead

Like Nick said though, removing it will reduce weight and free up space in the engine bay.

Cool thanks guys

More room, less weight. And lets be honest, air con isnt a necessity in the UK lol.

I mainly use AC for demisting my windscreen lol. I would say the car felt revvier when the AC/PS belt snapped but nothing worth shouting about.

Set the aircon up with a charge/ intercooler for extra power ;)

Only reason I got rid of mine was to run a relocation kit. That and get rid of the horrible pipework.
