ok, i can see that system working, but adding all those electric motors will create a hotter environment, which would require more cooling, so it would negate any benefits

Can't seem to find any pics, seems as if no one has caught on teh greatness of sway bar cooling.

But really all you need is shiny!!!

if youre worried about heat you should go with a lower gear ratio, i hear the steeper the gears the more heat you get

i dont see how that would assist with cabin air temps

Buy like a giant tractor trailer ac condenser and plumb it into a giant intercooler from like a cruise ship and run the output of that into a tank of dry ice then the output of that to like a vent under your seat.

Wrap everything in fiberglass to keep the engine heat away from your cooling system

Something wrong with it or do you just want to increase efficiency?

Are the cooling fins on the condenser clean and straight? If you have a lot of bent fins or debris buildup that could affect the performance. Also too much oil in the system will cause cooling issues with the A/C.

Do you use the fresh air or recirculate setting? On hot humid days you will notice a big difference in duct temp if you use the recirculate mode. Instead of pulling all of the hot humid air from outside it will be pulling cool dry air that is already inside the car.
