You would almost be better off with an older (known to be good) Harrison unit.

EDIT: BTW, I have a couple known good R4's that were taken off low mileage cars, and replaced with a Sanden. You are welcome to have them for the cost of boxing and shipping.
Thanks for the offer rollguy. I might take you up on that depending on what feedback comes in on the Compressorworks units that have been recently installed. I got in touch with the AC shop in San Antonio and they said that they've been installing compressorworks R4 units without many problems. Was your experience with bad compressors recent?
