Not me.

Most of my modifications improved crosswind performance and increased down-force.

I also got an mpg bump, which is nice.

However if mpg were my only goal then an S10 or Tacoma would not be my base vehicle.

UPLIFT has long been an underated issue in this forum in my opinion.

This is a good thread.
