microtech and air con?

[omp]

How's it? I have a 180sx that I have fitted an RB20 into. It also has a Microtech LTX12 (a long sad story) fitted. My question does the standard ECU have to be retained to run the air con? I am getting the air con fitted later this week and I just would like to know is all. The guy who fitted the microtech isn't at the workshop at the moment as he is on holidays, so he isn't there to ask. Thanks people. Pete

Hi Pete,

I assume that you are referring to the idle with A/C on settings? I have Microtech LT-12 in my R34 (not sure whether that is a good thing or not) and it seems to work ok with the a/c. My idle jumps all over the place at the moment (with or without a/c) but seems to eventually settle on or about ohhhhh anywhere from 650 to 1350 rpm. I'm just waiting for a hand control unit so I can have some work done to fix the problem.

Let me know how you get on.

Cheers

Ok thanks for that, I know what you mean by a funky idle! Mine is around 700-1050rpm but it is only running off base map at the moment. I am running the engine in after a standard rebuild and I also have to hook up the intercooler as well. Will certainly let you know how I go! Cheers Pete
