keep in mind that a 993 condenser is almost 5 inches thick and is an efficient design. You arent going to get the same performance on a tube and fin condenser or on a 1 inch thick condenser... which is why its disingenuous to really present the front fender as a viable option as a deck replacement if you are talking a typical 1 inch thick heat exchanger like we have in most deck or fender units. there just isnt enough surface area to really replace the deck..
i also think that the location of our condensers (deck, front but somewhat obstructed) is going to reduce efficiency.
if you took the surface area of the deck and front its probably similar to that of the 993.. but its removed from the heat, given dedicated airflow...
also remember that the 993 also had 100% more air volume in the cabin and double the evap volume. So it wasnt just about the condensers.
this is an apples and oranges comparison.
