Defrost on loss of power?

[lynnriderm6]

idk if anyone eles has felt this but i had the defrost on the other night and didnt feel anything in 1st gear but when i gave the car a good push in 2nd around 5400-5500 rpms felt like my car just died...i know how the car feels after 5800-6000 but it felt dif. almost like it was sputtering...with the defroster off it doesnt do that though..any ideas sorry for the run on sentence lol

Well this car's powerband dies after 5600ish. When I had only a few bolt ons I didn't feel it but now with more mods (minus the AP) I felt it just die after 5700.

That and running the air unit will sacrifice a little power. Some people say its not much at all but I definately feel my car run slower with the air on.
