    What is involed in removing entire aircon from my VT

    why not just get a heat blanket for the turbo. If you try and remove any part of the aircon system you will need to have the gas recovered professionally, otherwise i would wish the fine on you for stupidity and ignorance. You could only ever remove the system from the firewall forward as you...
