Help me interpret my results

I've just had my best non-EOC tank ever, and I'd like to thank my grille blocking for it but I'm not sure.

I'll definitely need to gather more data, but in the meantime I can't wait to analyze what I've got...so what do you think?

FE-friendly conditions:
- Windows closed due to cooler temperature and rain.
- New aero mods (license plate stealth grille block, stealth grille block behind upper decorative grille).
- Grille-block related intake temperature increase.

FE-reducing conditions (compared to baseline):
- Cooler temperature.
- Small amount of A/C usage.
- 33% of driving had an extra 300 pounds load.
- Rain required wiper and headlight usage.
- Experimented with double-clutching and clutchless shifting, requiring lots of idle time between gears and lots of time spent struggling against DBW for rev-matching.
- Hurried/stressed, driving a little faster.
- My baseline usually includes a few miles EOC, had none this time

I'm not sure if this would have affected FE, but as part of my shifting experiments I rarely used the clutch to enter a normal P&G-style glide, instead just pulling it out of gear the way one does for clutchless shifting.

Unfortunately it's hard to say for sure, since that point looks to be on the same upwards trend as the previous non-EOC results. Where that gradual upward trend could well be the vehicle running in and the weather getting slowly warmer in general.

I kinda figured the break-in would be done by now, I'm up to something like 6500 miles.

The weather is not as warm as it was a few hundred miles back when I got almost the same FE under better conditions.

Well, as I said...I can't call this data worthy until I get some more data.
