Those with Chillers what are your IAT's? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Just wondering what your guys IAT's are? (NOT THE TEMP OF HEAT WATER.)

What is your ambient temp?
What are your IAT's at idle with the chiller on?
What are your IAT's on the highway with the chiller on?

I am trying to see if my kit is working correctly. Again I don't care about the temp of the water, I am only concerned with your IAT information.

Thanks

Here's my IATs with a super muggy 83F ambient temp.

Is this driving or at idle? Either way my temps only go about 20 degrees less than ambient. When driving. They stay right around ambient or about 10 degrees higher at idle. Anybody else have info?
Thanks bumblebeecamaro.

I normally see 92-97 ambient, Idle chiller on IAT 70 and highway IAT 60-65 in normal mode and in comp mode about 5*-10* less. Peak IAT on a 1/4 mile run at the end IAT 115-120* , and if chiller is off IAT is at *150.

I can't get anywhere close to those IAT's. My high side and low side AC pressures are in the correct range. I am going to datalog some more over the next few days just to make sure.

Does your cabin air feel good inside? It should feel cold as stock if not your freon level is in correct. I had this issue with mine as I was the first 5th Gen. to get one and it took us about 3 tries to get the freon level correct, sometimes it would cool the chiller good but not the cabin and then it would do the opposite, third time we got it right just adding alittle at a time until it did the job all around.

AC in the car is really cold. I am going to check my pressures again tomorrow. I was told (RX) that the AC pressures will let you know if you need to add or take freon out.

Which SC do you have? Some have more efficent ICs that lower IATs more

Turbo99 · 08-20-2012, 06:38 PM

he has a chiller, it bypasses the chiller when the A/C is engaged. Has nothing to do with the I/C. But yes a better I/C will help IAT but not in his case.

SC2150 · 08-20-2012, 07:46 PM

turbo99 is running 30* below ambient on the highway, your at 20* below so not far from him. Still may need some freon tweaks but make sure the HE bypass is totally bypassing the HE or your fighting the ambient air temp trying to chill the outside air.

Turbo99 · 08-20-2012, 08:15 PM

Mine also fluxuates going down the road, so 30 below ambient is on the better end and on the lower end I will see 20 below. I started see higher temps and about a month later my A/C clutch was gone, so I just got a new clutch and I will see if that keeps mine more steady like it was when I first put the chiller on.I think I have an issue with my clutch re-engaging during WOT, we saw it on the dyno graph but I need to put a camera on it when on the dyno and see, my car has 13K miles and the A/C clutch looks like it had 100K on it. As I said we saw a blip in the dyno with the a/c on where the clutch went off and then a dip at 5500rpm where it looks like it came back on.

I know for sure the HE is bypassed because it's not hooked up right now.

I also have a chiller. I was talking about the IC in the SC , not the FMIC. I should have been more clear.
