you can take it out without removing the motor so i don't see why you wouldnt be able to put it back in. The only problem I could see is that I know in my crx I had a hard time removing some of the lines without bending the hell out of um. I also never plan on putting it back in, so I wasn't very carefull of them.

when I took my ---- out nothing got bent or fucked up, so I could put it all back in and have a working system.

pump and the condenser(sp :P) can came off with engine in the car.
just remember DO not release the freon by opening up the needle valve with a FLAT HEAD screw driver.

I took my ---- to a mechanic to take all the freon out. I don't know how much they'd charge you, but for me it was free because I'm big pimpin and I went to the shop with no hood.

that's what I did to test myself, a whole summer without it then the next summer yanked it. I hated turning the ac on because with my powerhouse d15b2 the ac robbed too much power for the car to drive comfortably, I hate have to push the gas more than 50% while driving easy.

I turned mine on only once and I just said ---- that ----, way too much power gone, I hate to turn it on in the truck too because I can feel the power loss, but ----, going through arizona in the middle of the day in the summer is too much for no ac when I have it, plus I don't want to be all sweaty when I meet up with my socal crew.
