ha, i looped my heater core hoses together. then ran my intercooler hoses to my Heater core, riding down the interstate my IATs were about 120.. Turn the AC on and turn the temp about 1/4 way up to warm and the IATs went down to 95 and the AC was still blowing 60*..
I was happy and im sure my Engine was too..
