Your goal then is exactly like mine. And you're on the right track. Look over my car's page here at EM for ideas and such (lots of info and links compiled there for my reference and anyone else interested). It may have one or two ideas to help. PM me any time you like.

Happy modding!

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
