Thread: a/c robbing power

when my a/c is on it seems to really take a good chunk of power away. so i dont use it that much. is it normal? i know its somewhat normal.. this might be a dumb a** question but would running a shorter belt and completely avoiding the a/c compressor free up any power? probably not. car engine also get loud under heavy acceleration with the a/c on.
