Thanks for that link, I didn't know ecomodder had a wiki like that.
I found that autospeed link that had a 2 part review on a prius. It was pretty interesting, but I thought the car already had a partial belly pan.
I have a vehicle lift but havn't moved it to my new house from my old shop. I can't wait to test this out and see how much help it makes.
Drafting a semi at 3-5 car lengths I can maintain 65-70mph up moderate hills. Something I would never be able to do without drafting. Hoping that I can do several aero mods to stay in lean burn for a lot longer.
I'm doing the full moon hub trick probably next week. Also, my grill block and WAI would probably work a lot better if I didn't have air blowing around the bottom of the engine bay when driving. It would force the car to suck in a lot more warm air, then new fresh cold air.
