One thing I've noticed about those H-bodies is that they are cartoonishly good cruisers. You wouldn't expect it but if you're on a long trip, they are extremely thrifty for their size, and decently thrifty compared to the midsize segment.

I think with some subtle aero and a little habit modificationyou have a really good shot at spanking your buddy's Civic.

I think the style lends itself to some rear wheel skirts, and of course your suggesed air dam will probably yield huge dividends. In fact the air dam is probably going to be the biggest bang for your buck.

Check to ensure that your torque converter lockup is working properly. No point spinning the engine any faster than absolutely necessary.
