Wait, turbo? I thought this was a supercharger build now? :P

That said, I got the M45 on just before the winter season and it felt (and sounded) great. Made about 4.5-5psi on a larger than stock pulley (75.5mm brp one, who knows what from but it fit) and pulls great. Nice uptick in power and having a car that just slides in and out of boost like you just cranked up the atmosphere a few PSI is really nice.

Also, what supplies for an AC delete? I have decided to take mine out for now and as far as I know, it is remove compressor, lines, condencer and then I am just leaving the evap for now. (Also, put a bolt in for the oil pump, apparently one of the compressor bracket bolts holds.part of the oil pump?)

Yep the front bolt on the compressor bracket helps hold on the oil pump. If you remove the bracket and don't replace the bolt with the correct sized one there will be an oil leak.
