ive tried searching on this subject, but could only find a little help. how many of you notice a drastic power loss on takeoff when you have the AC on. im used to a slight difference with my other cars, but the last couple days that ive had the top down with really hot weather and the AC all the way up, its been a drastic change. either i start like i normally do and the car just bogs, or i have to rev it up higher than im comfortable with and i feel like i might be hurting the clutch. just for anyone that might be interested, i have a AEM cold air intake and the car is stock other than that. im just wondering if it supposed to be like that or if there is soemthing wrong with my car. i just dont like it when i take off from a light and have a Geo Metro glued to my rear bumper the whole way with nothing i can do except cut off the ac.

thanks

EDIT: i havent been launching, and dont want to try that with the AC, just to clear any confusion there might be.
