I've read about these being 30% more efficient and will make your car a lot cooler, especially if it was designed with the now illegal R12 gas in mind, this is as the R12 is much more efficient than the newer gas so it can't cool as well as it was designed at the factory.

However I've also read a few things about it being unreliable but it was possibly due to it being legal for users to install themselves putting the air con regassers out of business, hence them bad mouthing it.

Anyone used it and care to report back? I am curious as I have a black car and I have to leave my gear knob off the shifter or use a glove to shift for the first 20 minutes on 35degree day as it gets that hot in there. Hell it even melted the sticker off the glass and turned a CD into liquid, even my sun viser melted into its socket so it is a complete pain in the ass to get in and out now.

Basically summer sucks for driving and I want to make it more bareable.

      There really needs to be an ODBII item that can play intake noise through speakers, synchronized with your current RPM and TPS%.

      So, we now have a straight and clean boot lid inbound and the car goes in for paint, again, on Wednesday, and will be ready on Friday, all ready to get cams and stuff on Monday  And by straight and clean.....I mean a brand new OEM one that cost..... $1300....😪 Sadly there's no clean undamaged used soft top version available, plenty for the power retractable hard top versions though, which is arse and makes Mark have the sads I could have waited longer, until a NC sort top boot lid eventually turned up, but I'm sick of waiting and said fark it and made it rain cash, meh In other naturally aspirated news, one of the guys at work brought in his old Corola which had a 4AGE in it, really nice clean car with lots of mods, including ITB's, man that things induction noise sounds sick with all of the dorts that makes you smile......maybe the NC needs ITB's, yeah, basically for the noise they make, but they're pretty expensive, but, they sound so damn good I may bring this up when I drop the car up on Monday, and by may, I mean I will🤣🤑🤪🤣
