Matt Timion Driving on E Join Date: Sep 2005 Posts: 3,110	Lowering your car in order to increase fuel economy Recently a few members of this forum have lowered their cars and have found an increase of fuel economy. krousdb noticed a 3 mpg impovement instantly. Lowering your car will theoretically improve your gas mileage as it reduces frontal area of the car, lets less air under the car, and as a result increases the aerodynamic "flow" of your entire ride. This thread will be a place to log results of this particular modification. Please give Fuel economy before and after. Please log as many tanks as possible for both the before and after condition.
