im in the process of making my dumbtube, and well there isnt much room for anything. i was wondering how much my AC would be affected if i removed the fan. it doesent work at the moment anyway but i plan on fixing it verysoon, but if taking off the fan will make it malfunction, i dont want to do it. let me know by tomorrow guys, i hope to have it done by then. thanks!!

 

u need the fan to cool the condenser......if u dont have it, then ur a/c is gonna be super hot and i think it might blow ur compressor or something, get a slim fan and put it as a pusher (mounted in front of the condenser)

 

My turbo setup is ac compatible. When I test fitted everything the stock ac fan was also in the way so I removed it and unplugged the ac connector until i get a slim fan.

 

i can do that, thats actually a fairly decent idea. well then tell me this. will i get a check engine light if it senses the connector is disconnected?

 

No it is not AC aware.
Heres a pic of my fan setup.


Heres a pic of my relocated upper AC line. Lots of room for turbo goods. I sell these as a kit now.

 

well, how much do you charge for this kit you speak of?

Also do you use a 10" or 12" on the condensor? I was thinking about running the 12" on my dual core civic radiator and then 1 10" in the middle of the condensor? Will that be enough or should you use 2 on the condensor alone?

 

bump for answer

 

cosidering that the condensor doesent even have aa fan on it and thet the ac fan is mounted on the radiator, i think it will do even better on the condensor

 

I did a dual pusher setup this weekend,

Before


Fans


After


I would like to relocate or move the main AC line that is above the header. The AC line infront of the header makes no sense to me, it just does a "ramhorn" type loop.

**Update**
I moved the passenger side slim fan back to the oem spot. Its to hot out here.

 

yea my radiator slim fan is fine. th ac fan is what i removed today so i can get a slim fan, so as soon as the fan was out. mt dumptube was made flawlessly

 

what size would fit on the condensor? Cause Like I said I want to get a half size radiator for my integra and will be keeping AC. And was thinking about a 12" on the radiator and a 10 or 12" in the middle of the condensor.

 

i've driven with no fan with my ac.. no problems...
i never really turned it on., unless i was driving like highway speeds cuz i was scared.
