If it's a manual transmission, possibly the starter motor is slow to disengage and is grinding against the flywheel as the engine is firing up.

You could possibly get better performance out of better coils and plugs but even those numbers are pretty minimal. Best thing I can recommend for fuel economy is to use seafoam in the engine and fuel and then change ...
