I took it all out
with the a/c compressor off and out of the way. I was able to reach underneath from the drivers side of the car instead.
with pretty much all the weight removal done to the front end of the Talon other than a carbon fiber hood the front end sits even higher. It noticeably sat higher when I took out the a/c compressor. I'd guess that thing weighed 70 pounds with it's cast iron bracket. I have the car sitting on Toikikos with the stock springs since I haven't changed out springs to my H&Rs yet this season. I have been really busy doing other projects around the house and don't want to put my H&Rs back on until I get a front camber adjustment kit. I did the SS washer and longer ss bolt camber kit in the back. I guess I could say the car is all set for rallycross!
After removing the a/c compressor the front end does feel lighter handling wise. Just slightly.
