Like the guys said above, but on the same note, half of the nothing I know came from someone else telling me. . . I know you can't run my engine straight up lean because it will burn the valves up. . .I haven't tried it. . .but people tell me.

Power steering delete will see truly minimal gains. AC compressor might be freewheeling in the housing just flowing air around but I kind of doubt it.

I only delete pieces that are not functioning and I don't use. . . so the AC is gone.

Think about the alternator like a bicycle tire. If you pick the wheel up and turn it, it spins for a long time, put it so it barely touches and it stops lots faster. The ground though is Electro-Motive/Magnetic-Force and the wheel is your alt, the pedals are the belt on the engine.

Less juice you use less juice you waste. Also, it takes roughly 2x more power than the actual devices uses because the alt converts electricity at only like 65% efficiency or so(better on newer models).
