Ecomodding a '95 Mustang GT
Hey everyone, just wanted to start a thread documenting my progress of various ecomods to my mustang. My goal is to consistently get over 25 mpg combined (from a 2008 EPA of 18) which is going to be no easy task with a 5L V8 and a 4 speed automatic. I want to keep the car looking as stock as possible. Thus I'm not looking at doing major body work. I have just finished fixing various problems related with almost 150k miles on the odometer so its running in tip top shape. I have also begun adjusting the nut behind the wheel so when my MPGuino gets here (should ship out by the end of this week) ill be ready to start testing various mods I have planned which i have listed below. I will post before pictures soon. Any input would be greatly appreiciated,
Current Ecomods:
Mobil 1 0W-30 motor oil
tires to 40 psi (stock= 32)
Planned Ecomods:
Lower grill, foglight, hood heat extractor, and side scoop blocks
Block ventilation holes on bottom side of front bumper
Body panel gap seal
Spoiler delete
Antenna Delete
Weight Reduction
Partial bellypan
