HOW DO I GO ABOUT KEEPING MY AC?

AC is for the wife and for a nice DD

wtf id "DD" ???

You can use a regular log manifold to keep your AC.

DD = daily driver

you probably should look into a different manifold.

you can keep your A/C in your garage after you remove it from your car

Re: HOW DO I GO ABOUT KEEPING MY AC?
 

it's gonna be pretty much impossible to keep your a/c if you plan to use the hf manifold because of where it places the turbo. if you really need to keep your a/c, you're gonna have to fork out a little cash for an a/c compatable manifold that offsets the turbo enough to clear the a/c components, but even then you'll have to get a thin pusher fan to put on front of the a/c (condenser i believe is what it's called, radiator looking thing) so you can remove the bulky fan that is currently on there to make more room. check out www.bmcrace.com or www.krbfab.com for a decent a/c compatable log manifold.

i had a log manifold from MaxRev, it clear the AC fan without any problem

u have to do a crazy adapter plate,i seen it once by some guy on turbos16.com

Re: HOW DO I GO ABOUT KEEPING MY AC?
 

i have a hf mani to t3 and there is no way that would work with a.c i thought if i moved the fan in front of condensor it might work it didnt then the compressor got in the way .. just take it out or buy a kit.. its pretty hard to keep your a/c with a homemade turbo personally

Re: HOW DO I GO ABOUT KEEPING MY AC?
 

just give up th AC man. i tried to keep it. and it ended up putting me into more trouble down the road with clearance of the other stuff. so i ended up giving up my AC and everything still barely fits in there. i had to chop up 1/2 of my fan housing.

you're in my area and i've been talking to you on some local atl boards. pm me for my cell and meet me up at mainstream sometime and i'll show you how to use the hf and keep a/c.

btw that wierd adapterplate is probably mine=how you do it.
