The front spoiler you have might help us

the 2.88 gearing is pretty good for mpg's as well.

I think my cd has the 3.07 rear. I think the skirt would hurt to be honest. this car is purely my driver to work so I will do anything reasonable including swapping in a 240D and fabbing a 5spd if it will pull it. Im kicking myself right now for not pulling a 5 spd from a mercedes in the pnp. it was the one with the starter wart on the wrong side but I think I can make that one work.
