well... it only really creates drag when its on, there might be a tiny bit when the ac is off, but when the compressor is off, its a free spinning pully. the "power gains" your going to get out of it is going to be whatever weight you pull out. not really worth it in my opinion.

on a side note, you actually get better gas milage with the a/c on and the windows up(at least in my car while going anywhere from 55+ in all the times ive tested it) . the drag created from having open windows works against you more thanthe A/C compressor.
