96 Saturn SL1

Hello everyone,

I've been a bit busy this weekend, got to doing some aero mods as I have seen posted here.
List of Mods includes:

Pass mirror delete
antenna delete
front wheel spats
rear wheel spats
front corner dam extensions
Side skirt extensions
Gasket all shutlines in front. (hood, headlights,grill,pillars)
34 psi tire pressure
I feel wheels are already pretty clean (?)
Scan Gauge

Next Mods? any advice? I do want to make the vehicle look stock.

The scan gauge tank averages:
1: 39.5
2: 42.2
3: 43.6
4: 46.1

This is when I decided to do all the seals in front (hood, windshield,headlights, bumper etc) and lower side skirts, and lower dam extensions. washed waxed the car and ready to beat the 46.1....

5th tank: 54 MPG

Also wanted to say I didnt get into the idea of hypermilling until about tank 3 or 4. I will put up photos of the mods today. So excited to break 50!!! This is all based on my 80freeway/20city% commute of 65miles in two directions at 75-80mph (2800rpm avrg cruising). In California now, Pasadena to Camarillo 5 days a week.
