Wait...you're saying 50% of the price for a new compressor or a new HVAC unit?
~50% of a cost of a new condensing unit and coils. You’d have your existing air handler in the house, but with new coils, and a new larger outside condenser and compressor.
The new compressors are bigger to handle higher pressures of the 410a, and as the years go by the seer rating go up on units.
For around 2000-2700 you could likely get it all replaced and upgraded, and be ready for the changes going forward away from R-22
