Yep, and I try not using the a/c in city driving as the idle is totally wacked. If I'm going to use it I flip in on just before I get on the freeway when the engine is always at least near its power band. By the way, 195 - 200 hp (SVT) or not, 2.5 liters is still a small engine and I wouldn't expect it to handle all the luxury accessories it is expect to with much aplomb.
