it depends on the kit you have whether or not it's a/c compatible.

If it's a tight fit and you're worried about rubbing issues, the stock a/c fan can be replaced with a slimline fan and eliminated most fitment issues.

Did you buy a kit? Or peice yours together?

Get an aftercooler - then you won't have an IC to get in the way of ur condenser - then u can fit AC no prob.
