Conflating, kung foo! So, what I think this suggests is that I can aero my car and I should see some improvement in mileage. However, to maximize the return, in turn I need to know what rpm my particular engine is optimum, for the reduced load of the aero. Additionally, realistically I only have some alternative fixed gear ratio's, but I should be looking to find the closest to optimum.

Are there BSFC maps for different engine/camshaft combinations available, somewhere?
