Lifts, stuff like that, they may have a pretty dramatic effect on mileage, due to aerodynamics.
Look at how removing just the front air dam changes mileage.
The aerodynamics on a RRC are hideous. Ever spring some sort of leak on the underside and watch how the drops go off the back of the car then climb up the rear onto the rear hatch and glass? The airflow is going up the back of the car, it's really bad. But there is not much to do about that.
I wonder what I CAN do to maybe get another 2-3mpg...ideas?
If I were trying to squeeze out every last mpg possible, I'd try:
1) synthetics in the crankcase, transmission, front/rear/center differentials
2) if it hasn't been done recently, a full tune-up of the engine
3) run higher tire pressures on pavement for less rolling resistance
