That nmakes sense, V-tec is scary cool. I was considering some other potential mods, however my lack of car-specific knowledge makes it difficult for me to assume i would be able to do much to the engine. as far as base line mileage I can get about fifty, driving hyper mile status, but not as good as the magestic V tec. I might do some tire pressure testing, I've only had the car for about a week, which means my absolute baseline is not as good as it could be. I'm really curious about the boat tail angles, i just got a high CFM fan for a mini wind tunnel I want to build, that should help me know what shape might be best. Also just a question, but would weight staging the car only increase mileage in acceleration situations correct? It should have almost no affect on highway, or am I mistaken?
