ECO_IX AC's suck!!
 
I have a 06 EVO_IX and the AC doesn't blow to strong is this normal??
Ya I know real racecars don't have AC but 100dg today!!

mine sucks too, if you're the only one in the car, close the vent all the way on the right of the car, it'll make the other 3 really strong.

Couple other threads on this as well. Seems the A/C on Evo's is just not that strong. I have had my IX for about 2 months. I was just up in the Ontario, CA area the other day and had to turn mine to high with the recirc going just to get some cooling (about 90 degrees outside). Not sure if tinting the windows will help but may be my next action. Good luck.

I noticed also, that the 2nd vent to the right does'nt blow hard at all unless one of the other vents is closed.

mine blows quite nicely :D

I got a 05' VIII and my a/c seemed like it didn't work at all today.

Mine worked fine for 2 in the car. I stayed in the lower gears and kept the revs up. I started on fresh air until it got cooler in the car than it was outside, then recycle it went until the engine shut off.

mine is alright... i guess cuz of my hella tinted windows... i got 5% on all around except the front windshield... i just turn my ac to 1 and it cools the inside not too bad, but when it gets hotter here in vegas i'll have to full blast the ac :D

Enyth Jun 17, 2006 01:45 AM

its not so bad, actually even at start-up, it seems colder than most other ac's in different cars.

Waz996 Jun 17, 2006 02:07 AM

130degs here in the day.. takes quite some time (15mins) but eventually cools to a breeze!

Mid 90's here in Florida, and the IX A/C works very well. In fact, so well, that if the sun is not beading down through the front windshield, I have to turn it to down.

Mine is pretty bad too but thats ok, even in the heat I like the windows down.
