The climate system was on but not doing much. I'll turn if off completely. I know AC can slow things down, but if anything only the heater would have been on. But yes, I'll try it too.

I think the AC compressor stillcycles onwith the heat to regulate humidity, etc. I might be wrong but i swear i read that in my owners manual.

My 0-60 is pretty slow too, even if I'm chipped.

Check the sig for my car.


My 0-60 is in the 10 range. In "D".

wow, you've brought out all of the 0-60 times.. i thought i was the only one that used to be slow... sadly my car is at home (me at college) and just got upgraded without me ever getting to drive it...but ya my turbo was messed up but i could still feel it boost in first gear for sure.. just got it up to speed a bit, let the rpms fall back down then hit the gas again and could feel it (1-3rd gear i did this)

I hope that is not true, if it is cold enough for your heat to come on the humidity won't be high enough to warrant dehumidification.
