I’ve got a 2015 Mustang GT running a supercharger setup (Paxton 2200SL). The issue is my A/C compressor just failed, and I’m trying to figure out the best long-term fix. I know that to get it working again I’ll need a new compressor, condenser, lines, and then to evacuate/recharge the system.
What I’m stuck on is this:
If I replace it with another stock-style compressor, will it just fail again because of the added power/torque from the blower running on the same accessory drive?
Or is there a stronger aftermarket option (like the Ford Performance M-8600-M50AC or another setup) that holds up better under high horsepower applications?
Basically, I’m trying to avoid doing all the labor/evacuation/recharge just to have the stock unit grenade again. Anyone here running big power with A/C—how did you set yours up, and is stock reliable enough, or do I need to go another route?
Thanks in advance!
