AC question

Would putting an extra fan in front of the evaporator help with cooling in traffic.

Replace stock fan with a higher capacity fan.. I figure it would help also,,

If your auto A/C is not cooling/functioning properly with a system highly qualified engineers built for your vehicle then something is obviously malfunctioning. You could---
A/ Install an additional fan in front of your condenser having no clue what is going on & hope it helps. We have taken off many additional fans customers have installed & their a/c is working great without it. We laugh & frown at the idea.
B/ Have a professional auto a/c shop analyse your auto a/c system performance & recommend adjustments if necessary.
C/ Charter a boat, invite all the tuners & let's go fishing!

Yea, just a correction bro. The Evaporator is the internal section that provides air to freon heat transfer and cools your cabin (At this point the freon evaporates) The condensor does the opposite and its the part installed to the front of the car.

Noiceee........

anyways an extra would not hurt, but if your current fan working correctly and adequately it would not help either.

modifying an original system by adding an extra fan won't help. If ur ac is not cooling properly, drier and contaminants within are usually the cause. Vacuum and regas is necessary then. If ur system is a MADE UP one, u need to use appropriate sized and type components. For instance condensers come in single flow and multi flow with different capacities. Usually larger condensers offer greater cooling ability. Also the efficiency of the compressor must be determined for adequate idle speed cooling.
