A.c. vacuum problem
So I just twin turbo my 99 frc and it took out the vacuum container under the battery. Well I was wondering since i don't have the cam anymore can I get a small vacuum pump and hook it up and make my a.c. controls work?

No, haven't tried one. Doubt I would want it inside the cabin though. Perhaps alongside the fuel pump on the frame or similar. I'd say a vacuum tank would also be necessary. There are others with turbos -- how do they deal with it? The turbo only eliminates manifold vacuum when at higher RPM? If so, why not plumb directly from the manifold to the A/C control? Might only work at some throttle levels, but less trouble perhaps?
