Default does tuning change when adding or taking out a/c

hey I am looking to get my car tuned but thinking about putting the a/c back in for the summer (south GA and girl-friend complains about getting hot) I was wondering if Iget it tuned before I put it in would I have to re-tune when It got put in. thanks

the computer should recalibrate every 5 to 7 days or so depending on amount drivin. the power it takes to drive the a/c pump will take some power away again but you probily know that since you should've gained by loosing it. i found the best thing to do is unplug the ele conector to the a/c pump that way it would not have a chance to kick on during a racing situation. dont know if you get anymore power from the unplug or not but atleast reasurince and real quick to hook back up again
