The aircon compressor is being removed to save a couple of kilos, the associated pipework and condenser have already gone. It is not needed on a track day car.
The turbocharger is also being removed having covered only 12,000 miles for rework from K04 specification to K06. Having had regular oil changes there is no end float play so the turbo is suitable for rework. It is being reworked with a Billet K06 Compressor wheel, uprated 360 degree bearing pack (thrust bearing) and twin seals and exhaust (turbine) wheel cut back, plus the addition of a Forge Uprated Recirculation Valve.
