Hit the highway today with my makeshift air dam and while hitting 70 mph took very little throttle before, it seemed a tad easier, nearly effortless. Even though I'd hardly call it empirical data, the instant mpg readout on my tripminder read 1-2 mpg higher than it usually does along that particular stretch of highway and my average mpg over the past 600 miles went up by .2 mpg so it's safe to say my car likes it!

The front of the car also felt more planted at speed.
