I would like to get 50+ MPG out of the metro, looking to do some mods. I am not afraid of getting crazy with this car, I can't leave anything alone. I also don't care what this car looks like going down the road as long as I'm getting better MPG than the guy looking at me funny does.

Welcome to Ecomodder.com.

Your Geo sounds like a fun little MPG project.

Please use the search feature as many users here have looked into this car as well.
