2010 Dodge Challenger SE

[diablomike63]

Hey everyone, I have a 2010 Dodge Challenger SE, Flowmaster dual exhaust, mopar cold air intake, I have the 93 Octane tune on my car Throttle boost turned up all the way, tire size set, trans set full firmness, I love the way it feels when I cruise but I noticed I actually get better performance, pick up, throttle response, quicker firmer shifts when I have the air conditioning on, I would think the performance would go down with the AC on, has anyone else experienced this, or know why this is happening. Thanks any information would be much appreciated.

Its probably that way because when you go WOT, it releases the compressor clutch. So the motor is no longer turning the compressor. You feel that as a power boost, due to the lower parasitic drag.
