mine raises when i turn the a/c on. How tight is the belt? Also check for vaccum leaks.

It's worth doing a throttle adaptation as well (search feature will reveal how). Over time your throttle can lose alignment and you may be a little low, enough that the increased load on the engine from the AC causes it to bog.

Also could be vacuum leaks. It's worth doing a test for them, especially if your car still has 11+ year-old rubber hoses.

turn the key without starting the car and let it sit. you'll hear some noise under the hood.
