I bought my "99 Boxster base about 1.5 monts ago. It has 68,000. mi. Runs great, no major problems except the stupid gas gauge. (but I digress) Anyway I was was wondering if anyone else notices major strain on the engine when you turn on the the A/C. My '944's were pathetic once you turned on the A/C, and I see that the boxster, while not pathetic, has more strain than my BMW.
Anyone care to comment?
