Default this is wierd

ok so i have a 00 ta m6 bolt on car the past two weeks me and my friends have been having a problem my car feels as if it pulls harder with the ac on, crazy part is its also faster. with ac off the tires spin but make no noise on the 1-2 shift with it on they squell, it also put you back in your seat harder, now i thought it just felt that way but sat night we went out racing and i raced the same car twice first time no ac second time with ac no miss shift no **** ups with the ac on i pulled the car harder. ive always heard that ac on causes you to loose power but why is it making my car faster?if anybody has any idea id like to know im thinking about putting it on the dyno and seeing the difference.

Moved from advanced tech.

Best thing to do is scan your vehicle at WOT with a/c on an off. See if your getting knock retard or any other strange anomalies with the a/c off.

Your AC disengages after 4.2K rpm if I recall.
