Dunno why this jogged my memory but it just came to mind that car is running a mechanical fan. Depending on budget, an E-fan upgrade could be in the works. Can go all aftermarket with a controller and fan or get a controller and pick up a Taurus/Mark8 fan out of a JY. They are one of the most popular fans to swap into everything because pretty much universal size and the fact that they pull more air than almost anything else out there.
Don't cheap out on a controller kit that uses those damn radiator probesthat wedge between the fins; get one with a real temperature sensor and adjustable on/off switch...might want to get a temp gauge now too lol.
If I keep this up, that car is a going to be one hell of a pro-street eco-mobile.
Yes read that post in the link. Rear diffuser looks interesting but would take some work to build one and test for actual better MPG.
