Come on down to Texas and you will rethink your a/c's position in your life.

Are you tuned?

I drive with my A/C on auto and don't really notice a power drop. If the compressor uses 3-4hp, I'm losing well less than 1% of my power. But I don't run mine on max A/C and drive aggressively at the same time.

I don't run it unless I have to...and these day, I have to. Sometimes its so hot outside I'm not willing to burn up just for a few more ponies and a more responsive car.
