A/C in intake for power?

Since cold air is more dense and cooler air through your intake is more power...what if you routed your A/C into the K&N intake box.Im not talking like a blower but cooling the air..I know plumbing would be an issue..is it possible come on gear heads

Complete waste of time.

Any gain that might be produced due to the cooler, denser intake air would be more than negated by the load (parasitic drag) of the A/C compressor system.
