Wow i don't even know where to start with this statement. First off, a supercharger is WAY more parasitic than an a/c compressor. The amount of power needed to compress enough air to feed an engine is quite a bit more than the small amount of freon that is compressed. When tuning a car you want to tune a variety of conditions, part throttle and WOT both. Supercharging makes very little difference tuning wide and you certainly don't gain any power over turbo through the tuning methods for a s/c.

But either way when tuning a car, SC or turbo, you place the car under max. load to ensure proper fuel mapping. I also know about WOT and partial throttle parameters which don't play as big of a role as: going up hill, AC on, etc...

EH having a/c on and going up hill doesn't really make any difference tuning wise.
