Vent always on?!!?

[Evanshall]

i own a Vibe GT, and it always seems to have its vent on, like a really really low but still there airconditioning/heating on, even when everybutton i can find related to airconditioning/heating seems to be off, im worried its eating my power, taking gas milage, and probably cutting proformance as i cant get 0-60 under 9 seconds, i should atleast get 8.5(although i do suck real bad at launches) if car and driver can get 7.6!any help appreiciated

The tiny amount of power required would have nearly zero affect on power or mileage. Practice your starts to drop your 0-60 times.

but is it normal on the Vibe GT to do this?? if so then no problem, or should i find out wha the heck is wrong?i did eventually actually time the time it takes the squal my wheels i found i was loosing up to 1.43 seconds making squaly noises with my tires, i think im gonna try a 5-60 just to make sure the vibe can accel, i know it should be slightly slower then 0-60, as well i dont like poping the clutch, how much time does that take away if y our not abusive

anyway to turn it off, or does it not take really anypower at all?

That info is listed in your owners manual.Quote » im worried its eating my power, taking gas milage, and probably cutting proformanceAs was already said, they will cause no noticable difference.Quote »as i cant get 0-60 under 9 secondsReally?

YOU CHEATER , if it was a auto that would be a different story, i dont know how to get off the line ine a manual, i can do everything else related to manual, im gonna try to get it lowere, as well i havnt actually found a flat road to try it on, its always like uphill downhill slightlly(pu to id say 9 degrees), i got my 145 3200 pound tuarus 10.12 though , hmmwell ill figur eit out, im gonna try a 5-60 like i said to make sure its just teh fact i dont know how to launch, not the car itself, i know it should be slightly slower from 5-60 but if i can get around low 8s ill be happy
