crazy idea 4 cold induction....
intercept the air duct for the passanger climate control. route it to the engine intake duct. connect the two. you want a colder air charge just set the temp. via the passanger climate control.

Uh... yeah. Not. Unless physics has changed dramatically lately, there's no free lunch. Whatever performance gain you get from the cold air will be more than offset from the extra drag on the engine from the compressor. If you want more power, simply turn the A/C off! (Unless you require one of the vents to be aimed at your head to prevent overheating and the resultant ideas such as above...)
But keep thinking. You might just invent cold fusion.
two problems here. I might be wrong but I think I read on another thread that the AC compressor automatically cuts off at WOT. The real problem with the concept is..... run your car at wide open throttle and look/see how much air it puts out! You would need about 20 air conditioners to have enough capacity. Nice thought though.
