hello folks

is it possible to keep a/c with a hf manifold and a T3 ?
com-.48
exh-.67
the DP is 5 bolt flange.

i want the compressor in the passenger side. is that possible...?

if you make some crazy adapter.. I haven't ever saw one that kept A/C with the HF manifold.

 

It's possible but not really worth the headache. The adaptor plate has to place the turbo in a perfect position and you might need a slim fan.

 

just put down your windows

 

i dont want to make a crazy adapter because the turbo is very heavy as it is.

slim fan is not a problam...



i live in israel... its hella hot here.....:P

 

U can buy a mani that is a/c compatiable or make 1.

 

i'm trying to save the money.

yesterday i got an arc welder as a gift from my gf...
maby i'l build a log manifold later on.... but for now i want to use the hf.

i cant make a test fit because its my daily driver and it seems that i cant unbolt the stock manifold from the exh pipe with a spanner...

tomorow i'l go to the shop to unbolt the nuts with an impact wrench.

am i gonna need a new gasket for the stock manifold after the test fit?

 

there is some post on here of a guy that did it. He put the A/C fan on the outside of the condensor to make some more room....i think it was a different fan too. Pusher as opposed to puller, or the other way around. Also i think it was a smaller turbo. Maybe a t25.

 

with the size t3 you are talking it'll be difficult. i made my td04L fit with a/c using an std/hf manifold. you will neet an adapterplate that rotates it to work and move your fan.

 

.67 exhaust and .48 compressor tehehehehe have fun with your 2k rpm's of boost
