    Does A/C turn off at WOT?

    I had a 94 Caprice 9C1 and the A/C would turn off at WOT. Does anyone Know if the Marauder does the same?
    You "feel" the difference because you want to "feel" the difference. Since you just spent money on the upgrade you "have" to feel the difference

    I'm looking to eliminate the double pump process I have to follow right now to get the pedal hard

    You can change that in the tune, but who knows what high rpm's will do the the ac system.

    Yes, the factory tune has it set for 6 seconds at WOT before AC will cut out. Can easily be changed with a tuning software.

    I believe the factory tune will cut the AC immediately and turn it on after 13 seconds.

    I just got a reply from Bob and his tune tures A/C off immediately and back on after 14 sec.
