Default Cold A/C!

I got my C4 last fall, and up until today I drove with my windows down during the nice weather. The mid 90's temp today was more than I could handle so I decided to use my A/C for the first time. Boy, was I pleasantly surprised! It blew ice cold. For some reason, I wasn't expecting much from GM A/C (maybe from past experiences), but no problem with the C4! Anyone else more than pleased with their A/C??

AMEN! I just got my car from my father-in-law which hasn't driven it but 300 miles in 12 years. Needless to say I had to do quite a few things just to get her running normal. I too was pleasantly surprised to find the AC will blow colder than my 2003 truck. Although, I would like to increase the blower flow, doesn't blow out of the vents very hard.

Any ideas anyone regarding how to increase the blower rate?

Thats my same gripe. I've owned 7 c4's over the years and they all had ice cold a/c but the volume out the vent isnt very impressive.
