Hello, looking to get stratospheric MPGs from my Civic Si coupe

Hey all, new to hypermiling. I'm getting really into it by treating it like a game, but now my passengers hate the way I drive. Too bad, I say. I don't see too many "sporty" cars on hypermiling forums, but that should change as gas hits $6/gal this summer.

The goal I've set for myself is 36mpg from a tankful. I'm already very pleased with how efficient Honda has made the VTEC + VTC system in this engine. That, and the FP+ additive I'm using is having a definite effect.

I'm at 51,000 miles and going, driving about 25k per year. I'm looking forward to saving gas (and trying to drive less). Let's hope these kinds of forums last forever.
