RE: how often do you use your a/c?
only occasionally. I will run it on the extremely hot days sometimes, or when I come out to the car and it's been in the sun, I run it about 5 mins to cool it off then open windows
Lots of times on the highway i run it, because it is less of an effect on MPG on the highway

All the time here in south FL. Past few weeks the humidity is kicking back up and creeping towards the 90's. A/C is a must here.

No one answered his quetsion about horsepower robbed. It doesn't rob any horsepower at WOT if that's what you wanted to know, the compressor shuts down when you go WOT.

I can definately feel a drop in power with A/C on. I use it when I am on highway getting from a to b but if I pull up to a stop sign and a tough guy pulls ip next to me I turn the A/C off and waste him. I dont' know how many 6ers have tried to race me. Once while crusin on a hot day on interstate a ricer pulled along side of me and I could hear that stupid high pitch thing downshift so the A/C came off to properly introduce hime to all 8 pistons and flowmaster in his face. He got a good look of my tails quickly pulling away. Stupid ricers think that all they have to do is put that loud exhaust and stupid oversized metal spoiler on and their car is the fastest. He got schooled
