"since there is no other verifiable method."

Why can't you do coast-down testing? It would seem a lot more reliable and repeatable than pouring a gallon in. Plus, you'll probably get larger differences before/after so the data will be easier to sort.

If you want something to do in your spare time, design a kammback or boat tail. It'll be the most productive thing (aero wise) you'll do to your car.
