Turbo Install with AC
Friday, February 06, 2009 5:37 PM
I have a 2001 chevy cavalier with a 2200 engine and with working ac. I want to keep the ac and install the turbo kit. I have a wrecked 1998 Cavalier that i had turbod but it did not have ac. All I am doing is swaping parts basically.

I have a garrett t3/t4 turbo and a log style manifold. I dont have the ability or the extra money to buy or make a custom header, but I do work in an exhaust shop.

k, whats your point exactly?


Yes, you can run a turbo, and AC, but your DP will most likely have to be re-worked to get around it.

Got any ideas for the downpipe? Do i need custom ac lines? It seems as they come out of the ac compressor and 1 has a wide radius curl that goes up by the manifold. The other line goes inbetween the thermostat and the bypass line (where my old downpipe went).

I would take pictures of the old setup, but the front end is so smashed up that you can not see it.
