i highly doubt that you could hook up 2 evaporators because of the process of the low pressure liquid liquid going into a low pressure gas throught the first one and it would probably freeze up the 2nd evaporator which would cause the system to work intermittantly

another thing is that it would contradict the part of the water injection which is used to cool down the engine because the a/c also removes humidity from the air which is water.

if you relocated the a/c evaporator out of the cabin and put it in the engine bay and used a high amperage electric motor to run the a/c compressor then it might be worth while. but without changeing it to electric then it wouldnt really make up for moving the evaporator.
I don't think relocating the evaporator would be the best idea. A person would only need to divert some of the cabin ducting to the intake. Personally, I wouldn't bother with such an experiment.
