If you put the car on the dyno, and do a run with the AC on and a run with the AC off, the numbers will come out the same.

My buddy did it in his SHO. Ran on the dyno with the AC on, and put down exactly the same power as he did with the AC off on the next pull.

Yes, the A/C shuts off at WOT. The ECU controls it.

It'll still keep blowing cold air for at least a short while because the evaporator core still acts as a heat sink.

If you listen, you may actually be able to hear it switch off on WOT.
