I do not know of a good compressor bench test.

BTW, what did you think of the tint pics?
The AC system on Scar does not work, but it does at least hold some internal pressure, therefore it hasn't been open to the elements. I have been leaning towards using that condenser at least. I will flush the evap along with the other lines, replace rec/dryer and exp. valve, and the compressor is still up in the air.
Your tint pics looked great. I called that place, and uh, I don't think the sharpest pin in the cushion took my call. They wanted $199 to tint the wagon, and I never asked any more questions based on the person I was speaking with..... I was hoping for a 2 car package deal in the $220-$250 range [to drive out that far] but at the conversation never got to that point....
