Default Need A/C help

I have a 2015 5.0 113k miles. Over the last couple weeks the A/C has been blowing warm air here and there and has progressively gotten worse.

Cabin filter is good. Cold air intake is brand new (Started a week before the install of that). PSI on the low pressure A/C line is showing consistent at 35 psi.

Yesterday and today it blew off steam under the hood almost like nitrous and a blow off valve and has gotten to the point to where it’s basically all warm air. The PSI on the low pressure line is still showing 35psi.

Ive googled till I’m blue in the face. Anyone know what this can be. Everything is kicking on as normal like the fan and the pressure from the vents is normal as well.

Knowing your low side pressure is no good without the high side. Put a manifold on it and see what you've got.

The last time an a/c system blew on me like nitrous, a compressor shaft seal failed. It was accompanied by an incredibly piercing screech, but that's not a requisite for a failing compressor shaft seal.
