So took some time this morning to order a mod that I wanted to do for a while.

Since the skirts and taped wheels are gone, I'm seeing easily a 5-10% drop in FE. But I ordered the lightweight Agency Power pulley for my Subaru. Depending on year/model it drops the Subaru crank pulley weight from 4.5-6lbs down to 1.1lbs. It is noted as one of the best mods for a non-turbo Subaru.

I'm still considering 17" Wheel and tire combo that comes in at 6lbs per corner lighter. Although I'm not sure if I want to speed that much money for wheels and tires. Time will tell.
