Here in TX it gets 110 and HIGH humidity.. so in the middle of the day my ac barely blows 55-60*.. keeping it quite warm in the car still. So has anyone tried adding a second condenser and fan to the AC system? Or is there another way to make it blow any colder? It has a good freon charge, and i already added insulation around the lines to the evaporator..

While I'm glad that I don't have to deal with the TX heat right now. I think that my problem in my car isn't the AC, it blows cold enough, but rather the lack of insulation and abundance of glass in the car means that it warms back up quickly.
Air conditioning works off of a temperature differential. If it's 110 outside and you're still pulling 55 degree air through. That's better than the air conditioner in my house. With that said, instead of a second AC unit, one possibility might be that you may want to start looking into swapping out a bigger compressor. maybe something out of a seinna or a tundra would be bigger. Good luck. -------------------- '99 Celica GT - Sold
