Which A/C compressor do I have?

I'm trying to figure out my path for a/c upgrade, and I understand that this isn't the stock compressor and it's fairly new. Does anyone know which one it is? It looks like a Denso but I'm not sure.

Hi josephvman- Looks like the standard Nippondenso 10P15C - Part No. 930-126-021-01. That 's the same compressor that would have come stock from the factory.

That is a remanufactured unit which used a Nippondenso core - an excellent performer provided the overhaul was quality.

Is there no sticker on the back of the unit (had to get a mirror to see it on mine)

I am running the identical unit. Freshened my system in March of 2018. No issues since.

What did freshening your system consist of? I'm in the process of figuring out how far to take this a/c system. I don't need to get freezing temps out of it and I don't think I want to go as far as additional condensers in the rear wheel well. At this point I'm probably going to start with the Griffith "Reliability Package 1" system, do their variable speed fan controller, and upgrade to their evap and condenser motors.

The evaporator core and an additional condenser along with barrier hoses will make the most difference. I run a new blower/motor that costs about $29 from a mid 90s gmc truck. WAY cheaper than the alternative
