172 driver,

Without meaning to sound patronizing, every Piper and Cessna (at least) that I have flown requires INTO turn aileron during the turn, due to a little phenomenon called positive static lateral stability.

Therefore, in a left hand turn, the right aileron will be deflected down slightly, increasing the effective AoA on that wing.
