Well make sure you get a standard. They are also pretty cheap, and come decently equipped at total base. With just a few hours of work with coroplast, one can really make a difference. My early numbers are poor between the engine not being broken in, brand new tires, me having a brand new toy (after 7 years with a 95 auto, pink, Escort three door), and using the stock semi synthetic oil. The belly pan was easy, too. As the website is being completed further and further, the belly pan will be posted. When it's set I will direct there (not to be shameless, but because I can format how I want on an html page rather than the struggles of formatting a forum post).
I must caution, the v6 has a tow limit of 1,000 lbs, and it is very easy to get crazy with the car. Though, it was easier to be gentle before the exhaust- which adds close to nothing/nothing to efficiency. Please also note, my 46 mpg 440 mile trip at 63 mph average was all highway. In general driving, warm weather, I stay 38-42 depending on aggressiveness and environmental conditions.
