Default Runs sluggish with th AC on...

Is my type s ('02) the only one that runs like **** with the AC on? Seems like it loses alot of "get-up" when i turn the AC on. Anyone else have this problem?

a/c is overrated. i only use it in 99+ weather. and yeah all cars run sluggish when you have the a/c on.

This is why track cars have no A/C, that and it's decent weight reduction.
