It's 95* out here for 1/2 the year and I have GMS1...never had problems like that. Still boost around 20-22psi. I have noticed the AC draws a TON of power, especially when starting out or downshifting it's not as responsive, but that's about it...

Might be a problem with the GMS1...somtimes the Map Sensors come off or aren't installed properly, which will cause the car to go into "limp" mode.

I totally agree, driving with the AC on sucks! RPMs drop way to fast and the engine lugs a bit in higher gears, especially uphill. But I would check your MAP sensors, I know the one on the lower charge pipe (cold side) has a tendency to come loose or not have a good seal with the pipe.
