Me and my friend were doing some WOT tuning runs, when we heard something like a spring un-springing..you know what I mean. I thought it was the WG spring, and my friend said he thought the same thing. (keep in mind we're going....well..lets just say fast). Ends up it was just the AC line blowing up. I need to get a new one

Heat induced? How close is it?

A new line may not last long either.

yeah, it had to be heat induced. I was beating the ever-living crap out of the car at the time. Next line, i'll just bend further away from the turbo or get a longer custom line.

Guess the tuning still needs some work. Im now shooting flames everywhere i go. lol

I downshifted to pass on the interstate when I first got my car and I heard a hissing noise.turns out the engine movement broke the AC line off at the compressor.So I pulled the AC out and threw it away.it wasn't cold anyway.blah.anyway whatever you do you will have to get the system recharged.
