Considering it's winter, do what ever you can to keep it warm. If you haven't already, install a block heater or an oil pan pad heater and some sort of grill block. A front belly pan will not only help Aero. but will help keep the engine warmer as well. I ran a front pan on the Sprint I used to own (long before I knew what ecomodding was) just to get the engine to warm up in the winter. Also, consider synthetic oil in the trans. and engine. If the trans is stiff, it might have gear oil in it. That will make it sluggish and will waste fuel in the cold. These are all cheap and easy mods and the best place to start IMO.
