Plans for aero when you are putting in heavy traffic on the superslab?
CNG solves most of the engine problems, especially if you dont bi-fuel it.

Thanks.... As far as aero goes not much other than sticking to stock parts including plastic underneath. I also have the flat face 06 Civic Hybrid wheels going on if that counts as aero.
This is a good time to talk about fuel and the future of the car. The 91 octane is the base because that is what's commonly available. The idea was to build an engine that could run on alternative fuels and for and ICE engine it's E85 and CNG.... but the second stage will be E85. Once I get that down well I want develop the bi-fuel maybe even dropping to 89 or 87 and E85. Then if THAT works I would consider CNG as a base and E85 as a performance fuel, the idea is that unlike the normal driver where speeding cost you more of the same stuff, I will be using more of the stuff that is even more 'precious' in turn slowing me down. It's all a game to me. It really is a lot to unpack here in the first few threads but definitely excited to learn a bunch.
