Default keeping a/c with turbo

I have a 95 civic coupe and i am swapping a B18B into with a t3/t4 turbo, and a log mani. Will it be a huge pain in the *** to try and keep a/c or should i just chuck it? Thanks in advance

You can do it, but you're going to have to have the manifold, turbo, downpipe, chargepipes, wait. The whole fucken thing built around all the A/C ----. It's been done, but it's a bitch and a half. A/C is for 50 year old ladies with hot flashes.

i kept my a/c with my turbo but it required extra work.. first got the elbows and tees welded to the exhaust/block flange then fitted the turbo to the t3 flange and welded that to the log on the car.. thats the only way you can get that done but i still dont have huge amount of space for my downpipe and need to get a slim fan for the a/c
