CSF OEM+ Performance A/C Condenser for 964 & 993 Porsche 911 [8325]

CSF OEM+ Performance A/C Condenser for 964 & 993 Porsche 911 [8325]

CSF has received an overwhelming response to its Air-Cooled Porsche product line. Following the success of the recently released Fender Oil Cooler, CSF continues its mission to keep the 964 and 993 models running cool, while also ensuring owners stay cool. As these iconic 90s Porsches age, many owners are finding that their original A/C systems can no longer meet the demands. Leaking, clogged, or inefficient condensers are common, and even functional systems may not provide optimal cooling due to the conversion from R12 to modern R134a refrigerant. CSF is proud to introduce the new OEM+ Performance A/C Condenser for the Porsche 964 and 993, a modern solution designed to restore the A/C system in these vehicles and improve the overall driving experience.

Design & Engineering

• CSF recognizes that most factory A/C condensers from the 80s and 90s are outdated in both design and materials. These condensers were originally designed for R12 refrigerant, which provided superior performance compared to today’s more environmentally friendly R134a. Even new OEM condensers are not efficient enough to maintain a proper temperature differential with R134a. This is where CSF comes in. With decades of experience in designing and manufacturing A/C condensers, CSF has collaborated with industry experts at A/C Solutions to develop this latest classic series product. Using modern design and manufacturing techniques, CSF has created a condenser that fits perfectly, significantly outperforms the factory system, and costs less than a new OEM unit.

CSF vs OEM

• The new 964 / 993 condenser from CSF features a modern parallel-flow core design, offering significantly better efficiency compared to the older serpentine-style design used in the OEM unit for the 964 / 993. Parallel-flow condensers provide superior heat exchange, ensuring improved performance and reliability.
  • Key Differences & Improvements:
    • Increased performance: Approximately 5% better performance than a brand-new OEM condenser and much larger improvement over a clogged or dirty unit that has been installed for some time.
    • Optimized for R134a: Helps recover some of the cooling power lost in a refrigerant conversion.
    • Improved Durability: More robust design and construction materials.
    • Less Expensive: Around half the price of a new Genuine Porsche unit.

Why Upgrade?

• Whether restoring a 964 or 993 to show-car condition or upgrading a weekend toy for modern comfort, CSF’s OEM+ Performance A/C Condenser is the ideal choice. It offers a simple plug-and-play installation, enhanced efficiency, and durability, making it a smart upgrade for any project.
