I'm prepping my car for a turbo install that I am doing over the summer. I'm going to remove my airconditioning unit to provide more room for my turbo and because I never use it. I know you have to remove the condensor, compressor, and evaporator. I just needed to know how long removal will take. I read somewhere that Forty just ripped his out...

 

20 minutes? Just remember to depressurize your lines, otherwise you won't be much of a happy camper.

 

i just did mine a couple of days ago and it took me about two hours because i couldnt get to the compressor bolts. its not too bad though, its pretty basic.

 

yeah we pulled mine out pretty quickly, but we also had 4 guys working on it. It shouldnt take long, just remember what Sov said and depressurize the lines first..


*bring on the bashings tree huggers!*

 

Im surprised no one has ever said how to depressuirze the lines properly.

 

Do you know how? Other than taking it to trained professionals and paying them to do it?

 

No but in that case the public should not have to pay for something like that to have the stuff dispposed of properly.

 

Very true

 

It's gonna run about $30 to vacuum the system. may be even less.

 

Yeah, you're "supposed" to take it out using a special machine blah blah blah. Otherwise there's a bunch of ways to do it, you can either crack open one of the links in the piping and let it come out slowly or you can press the valves (take the blue screw tops off) with your finger and do it that way, just be careful.
