Is it that simple? Just splice another condenser into the system?<br>
You don't need to mess with adding extra dryers or a/c expansion valves?<br>
just have some custom hoses made up to splice it into the system?<br>
<br>
How do you figure the extra r-12 or r-134 the system needs?<br>

  <pre wrap="">Stan,
   You added another condensor in parallel to the existing
condensor. SO in effect doubled the heat rejection area. I
think what Robert is talking about is replacing the original
with a unit that has two (or more) paths for refrigeration
in the same space as the old. Hence not adding any extra
heat rejection capability.

    <pre wrap="">That extra condenser will work great! It works very good
on my Porsche. I use a Mini York compressor and it only
spins at 1650 RPMs at 75 mph.
