Dyno with AC on

Any body tested hp comparision with air conditioner on?
I am just curious to see how much horses our air conditioner takes away.

If it is not much I won't bother touching "ac off" button when I try to hit the gas.

THe car automatically turns off the A/C when you go WOT.

fsttyms1 is right... with cars that redline around 7k rpms, the AC compressor shuts off between 5000 and 5500 rpms. This is of course at 100% WOT.

I plan on getting a dyno sometime this fall when it starts to cool down and one of the things I really wanted to test out was the overall effect of the AC.
