The compressor is very large and air can pass though it normally as it free wheels. Once it becomes a restriction later on in the rpm drag reduction starts it spinning to equalize pressure.

Long story short.... Car on system armed..... Car off system off.

I should also mention that under no circumstance should you arm the device while already wot! It is extremely hard on the control box and Rob said if you did it even a couple times you are likely to blow the capacitors in the controller.
