172 cup performance

[sipps 172 cup]

Hi guys, just checking if there's any difference in performance between the rare 172 cups that have climate contol, and the 172 cups without.

 

[Bazzon]

Well, Removing the Aircon always give a slight gain. and save weight

So Yes there is, the "proper" cup is faster

In the real world you will not notice.

 

[kev182cup]

nope.

he means 2 cups 1 with climate, not cup vs ff

There will be a very slight weight difference.

I think he is on about 2 cups, 1 with and 1 without climate control. Having climate control does add more weight....

If you want a cup why do you care about climate control?

 

[SteveS Cup]

Maybe he likes the colour of the Cup along with the standard wheels, splitter and spoiler but would also like to manage the temperature of the air in his vehicle without having to twist the lil knob himself?

I know mate... I was taking the mick!

Climate control is pointless without AC imo.

Didn't realise you could have cc without ac.

 

[ForceIndia]

Regarding the op, yes there will be a difference. The car with cc will be slightly slower.

 

[SteveS Cup]

Erm... I think so. I thought that is what it was... maybe i'm wrong.

 

[ForceIndia]

If it has cc, it has ac. But you can have ac without cc (the 182cup and the ph1 172 has this setup).

A/C Probably adds about 15kilos, to the weight of the car. Normal road driving you will not notice the difference. Considering the cost off maintaining a 7 or 8 year old cars a/c system, not worth having imo.

lets b honest we done need ac in this country lol

wtf, I don't think many on here have had to do more than re-gas the AC tbh. Well worth having imo.

+1

A/C is a godsend both in hot and cold weather.

 

[franx]

Beside the weight ; one more belt ALWAYS running along (even when disengaged) = loss.
yep.

Also; if you live in the South of France, or Italy where these cars are sold frequently , i can understand the NEED for airco. C'mon, up here ??

There's a link on the web somewhere that shows a couple of women picking their favourite Clio Cup...l think it's called '2 Girls 1 Cup'.

to be honest just stay off the pies for a week and youd make the difference up
