Airflow across condenser. It is possible the new condenser is bad or the fan clutch.

Re: Help me diagnose my AC
Measure the input and output of the evaporator tubes. The readings (taken with the same thermometer) should be the same and the output a few degrees cooler) 320 high side at idle is too much. So you may have a defective condenser, fan clutch, missing air dam shields; what ever is causing the high si...

Re: O Ring Dilemma
You could also purchase a vehicle specific kit with all o-rings. Tim should have them.
