A large power draw pulls more current from the alternator, making it work harder. This extra electricity isn't free.
But how big is the penalty?
What I'm getting at is:
Will a car be faster with the stereo and/or headlights off? Or is the difference too minute to make a difference?
(I'm guessing it'll be too small a draw... but I want to hear others' comments.)
