ok so ive had this prblem for about 3 months thinking it would go away. this is what happens. when i have the AC off the car runs fine . but when i have the AC on when i accelerate i get like a screetching noise/sound coming from under the hood.(dont know where). if i have it off then i turn it on while im already driving, it will screech for about 3 seconds at the most. has anyone had an issue like this before. please help me out. and sorry if i posted this in the wrong section didnt know where to put it.

You need to tighten your alternator belt. The sound will go away instantly. If that's not it, it's your AC belt. Try tightening it, if that doesn't work though just replace it.
One of the two will fix your problem through.. hopefully  .

you will loose hp when ac is one because its running another belt for the ac pump. its normal for it to be like that.
