Just so we are clear, are you saying that the 2 condenser Retroaire system in your '85 is better than your 993's?
Two things keep me from making that statement definitively. 1. I have not spent much time in the 911 with the new AC system. Only complaint is that I wish that there was more air coming from the side vents. But not much wire could possibly come out of those vents.

2. I haven't taken my 993 out in the heat much lately. I am not really that familiar with that car's AC system. I do remember that it doesn't cool all that well when it is warmer than low 90s in Texas. I do know that it is nowhere nearly as cold as my other cars: 90s Mercedes, modern GWagen and a 2000 Land Cruiser (coldest of all).
