Car has A/C and worked, but on the truck accessory drives the compressor would hit the frame. You either have to switch to f-body drives, or there is a company that makes a bracket to relocate the compressor up high. I wanted to get the bracket and get it working again.
As for the turbo, my tuner was wanting me to do this as well. But I really just wanted this as a driver untill I could get a g8. Also my rear end would complain about it too.
