Yes and they proved that the car with no AC and windows down got better gas mileage, by far. I suppose you could also take into factor that various cars/trucks may get different results. Another vote from me on keeping the A/C if it works... I pulled mine out because it didnt work right and I was frequently messing with the motor and it always got in the way.
I did a similar experiment last week with my power steering. Surely the pump robs HP, right? I bypassed it and the car ran exactly the same ET.
