Is it worth removing all the extra useless equiptment on the X14XE ?
Such as secondary air pump and all that which helps fuel economy ?
Ive seen a few engine bays with the smaller XE engines and they look really tidy such as Jr's. Or is that because its a c16xe?
^^clean and tidy
^^full of extra bits?
I also have aircon which is like a huge fridge which i never use, so that can go aswell.
If this stuff can't be removed and im talking rubish just ignore me.
Thanks,
Alex

the sai is easy to remove, do a search it has been covered loads on here. aircon is also easy to remove but you need to sort the wiring out a bit for the fan switch to still work.

also if you get rid of the aircon it may de value the car if you want to sell it.

my fan worked fine with no aircon, and no wiring adjustments.

leave the A/C in, you'll regret taking it out. its not worth the effort unless you're building a silly 1.6, and stripping the car.
