Hello to you,

I've discovered your website I don't know how but since Idiscovered it 2 months ago I've found a lot of interesting informations about how to modd a car in order to have a more efficient car.

For the moment without any modification except 0,20% of acetone in petrol, new spark plugs and wires, air filter and a "environmental driving" I'm at 37 MPG.

I dive a fiat punto 2, you can find pictures easily on google in order to know what it looks like :

I am planing some more modifications :

- Deleting the radio antenna (I listen radio with my iPhone linked to my car stereo).

- Smooth the wheel covers with a sheet of PVC.

- Seal all gaps with silicon rubber (around windows, bumpers...)

- Delete the spare wheel, trunk floor mat...

- Smooth the front of the car (there is some aero-sport style holes in the front bumper with no mechanical interest).

- Put a belly pan, at least at the front of the car right behind the motor.

What would be the other easy to make modification in order ?

Thanks a lot to all of you.
