I do recognize that fact. Just having some tongue-in-cheek verbal fun.Originally posted by Christ View PostFor the record, guys, nose down will NOT improve aero on your car. The change will be essentially imperceptible, but WILL DEFINITELY be negative.
A Festiva has the aerodynamics of a red brick.

Focustiva: Because I was told it was was impossible to fit a Focus bumper on a Festiva.

It's got a pretty standard cD and small A, so while it needs improvement, it's not overall terrible.Originally posted by sam.1956 View PostI do recognize that fact. Just having some tongue-in-cheek verbal fun.

Since late Thursday, pulled the fuel injectors off Boopstiva, and cleaned some of the crud out of her gas tank.

Some of the crud in a box. Injectors are soaking, planning on blowing them out Monday. Fingers crossed she starts afterwards...
Installed a white face Instrument Cluster sam.1956 hooked me up with at NCStiva. Looks cool. Did I mention it has a TACH?! Put that bad boy in baby car!
Booyah, baby!
Sam, you can't break 80???
Aerodynamics= Me a dummy. I would think that lessening the gap between the bottom of the car and the road would improve things.Contact me for information about Festiva Madness!
Remember, FestYboy is inflatable , and Scitzz means crazy, YO!

It is true (for the most part) that lowering the car will increase your MPG.......That being said, there are many things you could do that are easier, lol........
