Continuing my sedan ST build here from the new member post. I am not the first.

A/C is overrated. Dump it. You can get a delete pulley and you can disable AC in Forscan.
It generally can get a lot hotter here than where you are up in the Northland, and this is going to be a street car, not an exclusive track car (at least that's the vibe I got from Mike's intents for this build).

That being said, it was in the mid 90s during the 2019 New England Forest Rally, even up in the mountain stage areas.

Even here in LA during the warm weather, I rarely use my a/c if it's less than triple figures.

Meh I can't live without AC either. 2 of my cars have AC and I drive those almost exclusively in the summer months and pollen season.
My fiesta's ac doesn't work right now because of an oil catch can rubbing a hole in one of the lines. I've been too lazy to fix it during the winter, but as the temperature increases here I'm rapidly finding new motivation lol.

It's going to be my daily driver and even in PA, I need the compressor to run in the winter to defog the windshield.

I discovered that I can not use the 11 roof rail airbags with the 19 ST harness. The connector is different. Good thing I kept the 19 bags.
