Lowering = better MPG?

[f91]

Installed the Ford Racing suspension and I'm curious to see if it helps with my MPG's, Lower to the ground, less air under the car, better aerodynamics? We will see.

My answer is no, and if so it will be very, very, very minimal. Driving style improves MPG.

Sure, but so does aerodynamics. My grille blockers worked great and added a couple of MPG's.

I did nto notice any during the 4k miles I had mine or any other car I have had. Thats a total or about 150k miles.

its really not changing the aero on the car. The bumper and the plastic bits under the car do more.

I have a little homemade lip made out of plastic that's bolted onto the little black plastic lip under the car. Guess I left that part out.....

My Mustang is lowered. Do you think I drive it now to get better mileage, or, you know, like you, I drive the hell out of it? Let's not mix fruit here.

Pix please f91. We all know I need help improving my MPG.

the car is so aerodynamic already, any ONE mod will not give noticeable increases of MPG.

The Best MOD to improve MPG; Wear lighter shoes

I would love to try this...but after last winter I think my Fiesta is already classified as a snow plow...I don't think I will go lower!
