I was wondering if there was a better motor we could put into these things (pushes more air) My truck's AC will never compare to my wife's Lexus in terms of AC blower strength or temp. (FYI--I compared my AC to that of my friend's 04 DII and they were comparable)

Thanks guys,

The Lexus may well have a larger capacity system, different compressor, coil surface area, and fan cfm. Increasing CFM dramatically won't leave a lot of time for existing coils and system to cool off the air as it passes them. If system is producing 40-42F air at center vents then it is working. Window tint? Paint the roof white? (could do it with tempra paint, which will wash off, for a test. Dodge pickups used to come with white roof, they claimed it made 15 degrees difference in the cab, that may be a stretch).

If you are sweating now, just wait a few months.....

 

Following this because I was wondering the same thing. The temperature is great and is cold as can be but the a/c comes out of the vents at a snails pace. I would trade colder air for more wind any day!

 

Maybe your blower is full of leaves or what is left from your filter?

 

As usual, jafir hits the nail on the head.

 

Come to ND, as we have plenty of wind LOL!

 

I'm sure there are many others from different vehicles that could also be retrofitted if you try. I however chose the 1997-2003 Pontiac Grand Prix to donate it's motor and cage to the cause.




...and no it's not a bolt on plug and play sort of install, but it does blow 36 degree air in 100 degree heat like it's coming out of a leaf blower now however.

 

Wow! And I was happy when that extra can of 134A I found (what the heck, can't hurt, can it?) produced 41 degrees with ambient temp at 95. I guess we know who the new king of cold air is. My hat's off to you, Wolfie.
....and my tail lights still make me smile everytime I see them. Thanks again.

 

Partz Vulturez are liking this.

 

Very interesting!
