Default A/C Problems after A/C kit install

Re the TSB regarding the A/C noise...The dealer ordered and A/C kit per the TSB. Installed it last week. Over the weekend I had a problem with the compressor cycling off periodically at idle and not coming back on for 5-10 minutes. Back to the dealer...they said that they had been having problems with their equipment use to meter the correct volumes of freon when replacing same, and as a result they had put to much freon in the system....????

Said that all was fixed (A/C reservices/recharged...got the car back today. The compressor does not cycle off when it is not supposed to any more but the A/C air is not as cool as it was with the old compressor.

I took a cooking thermometer that has an un-metered range below 100 degrees and checked the air vent temperature for 5 minutes in the Z and two of my other cars. The Z appears to be 15-20 degrees warmer than my other cars.

QUESTION: CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT THE SPECS ARE FOR WHAT THE AIR VENT AIR TEMPERATURE SHOULD BE WITH THE A/C SET AT 60 DEGREES IN THE Z?????

THANKS.
