    On highway keep your windows up. What I was replying was during the city while driving not on the highway.

    I keep mine set at 75 deg. and whether the windows are up or down I have never noticed any performance issues. If I drive with something resembling sanity (rare, very very rare) I can get 28 mpg, with my normal driving style (i.e. speeds between 80 and 115) I still get around 25 mpg.
     
  3. All you have to do is train the ECU(index-5) Run the A/C on everyday see what happen? iuno just guessing if this will work...

    A/C must be on during summer time, it's hot and humid here, even at night!

    It's a luxury I am willing to pay for... otherwise I'd be driving a Kia...

    I didn't think it was possible for my GTS to be any weaker in terms of power, that is until I turned on the A/C.

    Are all you guys driving CVT? Cause I just don't feel the lack of power in my GTS, A/C or no A/C, that you all are talking about.

    I drive CVT and i have absolutely no power problems. On contrair, i freeze my ass off even at 70 on lowest strength. I also have an 800wt pioneer amp with 2 10s, and HIDS as well. Never had a problem before with the ac.

    I agree, even at the lowest setting, the a/c it freezing cold!
