A.C. Compressor broke off the block and i need help ASAP!

Hello everyone so the other day i was driving and my power steering went out, so when i got home a took a look under the hood. I realized that my ac compressor broke off the block of my evo 8 which caused the serpentine belt to come off. I took it to a shop and had them take a look at it. My thinking was that i could just remove the ac compressor and lines all together and just use a smaller belt and just deal with no A.C. But the shop said that i need some sort of A.C. bypass bracket or valve to have the motor run properly, i cant remember fully what they said, but to me it seems fishy. So i need to know if i can just remove the ac components and just get a smaller belt and run the car with no negative affects to the motor without the A.C..

Thank you for any and all help.

If you are removing your A/C compressor, all you need is this belt ^
