If you did that tho, wouldn't it defeat the purpose? in order for the AC to be 
cold, the compressor must be engaged, which means its running off a belt off 
the engine. A/C saps power when its running, in some cases, quite a bit. It 
seems to be a hope towards a perpetual motion machine. expending power via the 
AC to gain power by getting colder, more dense air to the intake. Or I could 
be completely wrong involving how A/C works.
