A/C Deactivation under hard acceleration?

There is this big car guy and fellow engineer I work with who has owned a 1991 911 and now drives a 01 BMW 5 series and a Lexus SC400 he brought back from the dead and modified.

He says that some cars have this feature where the A/C turns compressor turns off automatically under hard acceleration so that it does not take any power away from the engine. He said his BMW and Lexus came with that technology, and that he installed that feature in another car of his in the past. He said it is a simple wiring modification I can buy.

Have any of you heard of this "Part-time underdrive pulley-like modification"? Do our 986's already have that feature?
