This guy's a beginner. He's just learning about stuff he can do to his car. Bolt on's are the place to start, not engine swaps. What happens if he pays someone to do it for him, then something goes wr...

His compressor isn't going out, it's just that A/C on a 4 cyl car sucks power like nobody's business. It's just a fact of life. You want power with AC, go get a V8.

I imagine if you did it rapidly, it would cause unwanted stress on the access pulley. I mean, if you just did like when you need to accelerate (again, assuming you're not doing this like 4 times a min...
