Cup Spoiler

[Buddyboy]

Thinking about the cup spoiler but heard its not good for mpg is this true?

 

[knuckles]

Lol. As if the mk3 RS clios can be any worse on fuel

Adding a cup spoiler would have next to no effect on the mpg

 

[Bux]

I've not noticed any affect on my mpg since putting on my cup spoiler

Might decrease your top speed by 1 or 2mph but thats it...

Who told you that??

A known fact.

Who told you that??

Simple principles of aerodynamics... More wing equals higher downforce, less top speed.

Not sure that the spoiler gives that much downforce though but it does create drag

A known fact.

:hug:

I wasn't questioning the top speed, I was questioning the mpg

If MPG is a big concern for you then you have purchased the wrong car.

Let's face it, if there's a 1-2MPG difference, you're hardly going to feel it at the pump every Sunday.

However, if it was a 10MPG difference, believe me, you'd already know about it.

And based on that - I wouldn't concern yourself.

If you're that worried about MPG, I hope you never use the air con, never have the windows open, never listen to the radio, always have your tyres at the correct pressure and you're are at your recommended body weight for your height (or less).

Stop your stressing! :-p

It could well be true but one things for sure, it'll look better with one fitted :drool:
