I picked up a Griffin top to bottom intercooler that I really wanted to put on the daily driver, but fitting it with the JDM bumper whilst retaining the A/C is proving to be too much fabrication than I really want to invest in for the daily driver and I can't remove the A/C in a tropical climate.
So seeing as water to air intercoolers are proven technology, could you build a water to air A/C condenser? It is only a heat exchanger isn't it? Has anyone heard of anything like this? It is more fabrication admittedly and it might not come to anything but I wondered if it might also make the A/C cooler given that water is far more efficient at removing heat than pure airflow. Is sizing critical in this application and would something like a laminova core work?
