a/c & power steering = drag = less horsepower.
and im not too lazy to reach over and roll the window down, plus power windows selenoids and whatnot = more weight :finger:

as nice as AC feels, i'll take a "no thanks" and i hate how honda power steering feels. if my car came with it, i would still take it off.

well thats fine ... I spent mad money converting this shit to r134 and for it to conk out right before it gets REALLY hot is unacceptable to me.

my moms 91 ex accord has a sunroof and I never use it ... dont like it.

Plus I wouldnt fit in a civic with a sunroof because the roof is thicker so its lower so i would have more trouble clearing it.

Nah dude...it is more than that...it is like 2 inches...Sit in a sedan with no sun-roof and then look at the construction difference between that and an Si with the sun-roof. The whole mechanism and everything makes the roof MUCH lower.

My girl's car is a 90 Corolla with a sunroof and I have to recline her seat to fit in it...but I have no issues in my car
