Nice. Should give you about 2.35789 rwhp, and equivalent torque.

Jealous of the 900 SF garage too.

I had it on for an hour and it cooled the garage from 89* to 81* and there isn't that kick in the nuts/rip lungs out of chest heat feeling when opening the door to the garage.

I was just talking with my wife about doing that mod. The heat has kept me from working on my car for a month. My garage has no windows.

I have about the same size garage, 850 sq ft, and I have a 220 unit mounted in the wall so I didn't take up the only window in the garage with an AC unit. Works really well. My buddies call me a puss for needind AC in the garage. I call them jealous.
