Can you explain more how the extra drag the spoiler puts on the car actually improves mpg?

Seems I'm not the only person to think about this.

Interestingly in that thread it says the Durametric can disable the spoiler. Will have to dig into this some more, would be nice if it could change the speed settings too. Crud, just realized the person said Durametric Professional and I have the Enthusiast.

Byprodriver even posted in that thread he wished his spoiler raise speed could be changed to 80.
