    You want to change to a drop in for R-22, no not what ever, the condenser would be too small the compressor would fly apart and your fuel usage would go out the window.
    If you require a colder vehicle, buy a chiller truck and freeze to the steering wheel.

    If you would read the operator manual with this vehicle it should tell you to use the re-circulated air button for maximum performance. [ so you are not trying to cool the local area ] go for fresh air occassionally to re-fresh the air in your vehicle.
