Firstly I should've specified that my goal isn't 100% to reduce consumption, I want to improve drivability, offsetting any weight gains in the front by removing parts (which this system makes redundant) in the rear.

I thought about something like this, but this wouldn't help me with the whole "no power during shifting" situation, when turning the engine would build power faster but nothing else.

The system should be behind the transmission and ideally on the front wheels.
