I never said it was officially released, only that there has been progress on it. Since it was announced they've released a few other kits for cars that were on the planning table but with higher public demand. I agree the cat was let out of the bag too early on the Stage 2 kit.

i hate to rekindle an old post, but i need an ac line!!! LOL, i don't even know what one is bad, i'm fguring its the one that comes with the turbonetics kit(that's the one thats nest to the turbo right?) anyways, where do i go to get a new line? Is there someone specific to call, or is a local hardware thing i can get...also i didn't install my turbo, but i do want to replace my ac line. i just hope its not too hard for me. Any input is GREATLY appreciated.

^ Calling turbonetics would be a good place to start. Other then that, they occasionally pop up in the marketplace. Make sure you wrap your new one more then what turbonetics does.

I have completely removed my AC system for weight and cooling reasons, so I guess thats the one thing I dont have to worry about with my TN install

If your condensor is still charged I would highly suggest not replacing your line. If it's already leaked everywhere, then call Turbonetics for their upgraded line. And then put some rubber hosing around it.

taurran would be the man to talk to in PMs about it.

How do i know if my condensor is charged. This is what i did...i just drove home from a 30 min drive, and i was driving with the windows down. I try to keep my ac off as much as possible anyways, but when i got home, i decided to see if my ac was still working, as i knew this was a cronic problem with this kit. So to say the least the air stayed warm. never got cold.

who is this taurran character?

Really?? Is there a list of people banned?



coupe's,

It sounds like it may not be charged. I would suggest using a blacklight and some UV dye to look for any leaks. If you see any refridgerant or the more o obvious hole in your system, then it's probably discharged as all of it has leaked out.

If you have any doubt about if it's charged or not, please take it to a professional. Don't want you hurting yourself inadvertantly or damaging the ozone

Good choice honestly. There are some things that I would rather not even do and that would be one of them.
