Sounds good though.
Seeing how you drive a STI how I'm wondering if I should even bother to hypermile... did you hypermile to save cash for a better car like I'm planning to do?

when im driving at speed, i
just barely release the clutch until i feel it engage, then the engine fires on. It ends up being, what, 100rpm?
Once the engine fires on, you press the clutch
right away, then you just rev match back into 5th or 6th gear. Thus preventing premature wear.
Yes, i hypermiled my old Del sol for 5 years (greatly reducing my gas expenses), which eventually allowed me to save up enough money to buy my dream car - sti.
