A/C and WOT

"acceleration" means to change velocity over time. Unless your speed is increasing you are not accelerating.

Acceleration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You're confusing "pushing the accelerator" with acceleration.

no not at all. If I remember right, cars today use voltage as a means of determining acceleration (along with other things too). 0 to 5v. 0 volts is only when completely off the pedal, otherwise there is some voltage between .1 and 5V that will cause acceleration, it just varies. Even on a flat road a car will require some voltage to keep the car going at a certain speed and this will cause acceleration, but you might not go faster cuz its using that voltage just to keep from slowing down due to the weight of the car and some other factors like wind. KInda like going up hill you have to give it more gas just to keep the same speed, so you are increasing the voltage to do that but not going faster. If you kept the same voltage going up hill you would lose speed.

My main point is that a WOT cutoff is fine but anything else would mean the A/C is off most of the time and as you know, here in TX we want the A/C.
