I believe he has also removed his radiator fan, because the 1.0L is so unloaded it generally doesn't ever get up to temperature, even with a full grille block and hot air intake. Can't recall if he swapped his glass for lexan or not.

I drive 15mph under the limit I can get way better MPG in selected routes
60 -> 45 technically that is the minimum speed in California so i'm not breaking the law
that is why i put a but plug on my hitch to discourage tailgaters it's going to rip a huge hole in your front end of your car.
at 45MPH it reads on the display 41MPG
no brainier better then 26-29mpg at 50-70mph. (way less if there is a head wind)
if there is a tail wind i'll go the regular speed as it will read 50-60MPG on the gas meter display in
4 cylinder mode (even like a slow 7mph tail wind breaks the rear tail drag)
