Air Conditioning, New / Old / or suffer. Options

[dagdal1967]

I live in Texas and am wanting to use my new '14 as, more or less, a daily driver and one of the things that is almost MANDATORY in a daily car in Texas is A/C.

I know that the debate rages wildly over the merits of putting A/C in a '14, but lets say that I've decided to take the plunge... What is best?

A.) An original Porsche solution that (such as this)
B.) Brand New after market A/C from a shop that has experience putting A/C in air cooled Porches and VW's

or

C.) Get over yourself and just suffer...

If anyone knows any such A/C specialists in the D/FW area, please let me know. I had the name of one when I had my previous car, but sold it before I got around to putting A/C in it.

As always, suggestions, comments and flames recieved with equal zeal!

I think you are probably better off with something newer, my understanding is that the older systems are less efficient and therefore can use a decent amount of hp. If you have a stock 4, you know that you don't want to lose that. More important, that lost hp is also going to cause extra heat.
