Default A/C with home-made hf mainfold!

Guys I wanna go boost but I don't want to give up my A/C. Would the stock HF manifold allow for this or do I have to go another route? I thought about making my own tubular mani. so I went ahead and made my own flange. Would post pic later. (Batteries on digi dead)

well i have a hf mani and chry. lebaron te04 turbo...it boost 6 psi max..and is very small.

now i was goin to do the same thing but i got a bike instead!! so im selling wat i got. u can do it with wat i got or another turbo...but u must be creative.

if u mount the turbo like the greddy kit is and put an 88 accord fan in front of ur condenser u will be able to keep ur a/c..

but keep in mind the greedy mani pushes over the turbo so it will fit..
but using the homemade setup you will need:
2 -1/4" steel plates
1- 2.5" exhaust pipe that will connect the 2 plates. 1 plate will bolt into the hf mani and the other plate will bolt onto the turbo..then you goto an exhaust shop and have them weld the 2 plates together...and u got ur turbo!! then just have them make a dwonpipe for you and some charge pipeing!

keep in mind an intercooler will probly be too hard and wont work cuz the intercooler and condenser will cause the radiator to overheat..

any questions about my stuff f/s im me!!
