I have one on order, gonna take the one off my old supercharger, see if its any better. Thank you @16GoManGoHC2 for the offer.

Keep us posted. I Haven’t heard or read of many failures of the bypass valve.

Just making sure you didn’t revert back to a tune before the changes I suggested. It seems you had a bunch of successful pulls after the suggestions I made. Then all of a sudden the original issue came back after track testing other tunes.
this May not be the issue just send odd it was resolved for so many pulls

Darn sorry to hear that but the 90 can handle quite a bit of hp if built and tuned correct

@fumanchu182 .. I just picked up a complete SC down to the injectors, if you need to use bypass, you are more than welcome to until your new one arrives, just let me know.

Killer chiller just said fuck you…

coolant flows, all valves open or close when commanded, ac blows ice cold when doing cabin…

i think im done, this is a sign to sell the car and get my ass to florida

 

[jonx96]

every June and July you hate your car 😂

 

[fumanchu182]

Im fixing it and then it goes up on marketplace

The unit is not getting cold, however the AC blows stupid cold.

How is the orientation of the unit? Can you post a picture of the Freon in and out lines orientation to the ground? The outlet needs to be on the bottom not the top or it can fill with liquid Freon and not evaporate correctly, worst case not even flow, ie not get cold then.

 

[fumanchu182]

It is oriented down as per Kincaids instructions.

 

[16GoManGoHC2]

Yea, looks right from pictures posted. Does the pipe and hose on the bottom of the TXV valve get cold during operation?

 

[fumanchu182]

bottom line coming from ac compressor with drag valve closed is cold

only thing I can think of is serious airbubble in the lines or the unit is bad.

The only moving part in it is the TXV valve the brass colored device. Out of the bottom of it going to the heat exchanger itself should get ice cold. If it’s not it’s not letting liquid Freon go through it or there no liquid Freon there. Did you check the charge pressures?
Is the intercooler coolant circulating for sure through the KC unit?

 

[fumanchu182]

I dont have ac tools so no way to check, should I whack the brass with a wrench?

 

[16GoManGoHC2]

What did you recharge with 134A or the original 1234 stuff?

 

[fumanchu182]

Original

You have a cheap R134A charge can with gauge? If not go get one and just use the gauge and hose to see what the suction side pressure is. If may just be out of gas as it’s hard to get the system to be 100% leak free.

how? Cabin ac blows ice cold when KC drag valve is not operating

Spoke with Joe from Kincaid, great guy. Wants me to make sure there are no leaks. Do a check at ambient and do a check with the car hot. The coolant in the bmr tank is being removed, going with a 30/70 mix. See if I can get it colder. 15” brake conversion as well Thursday night, should I not like how the car performs after that I’ll be posting it up as for sale on FB marketplace. I no longer have the stomach for this.

Darn you can’t sell !
