Ohhhhhhh see that's what I was asking, and it was a perfectly reasonable question to ask.

I don't want to remove the P/S all together though, as I will be selling the car in about ~4 months. I have nowhere to store it to put it back on later otherwise I would be willing to remove it. Unless it's really small that is.

Omg /facedesk, I didn't see the part about (FWD) all together on that, I only saw the MR2 and Lotus part on the delete... Man I really need to pay attention more...

Does anyone know how up-to-date the wiki is? I have been wanting to look into it, see if we can get more data.

Wow, even at 5% that would be a 2mpg increase over what I'm getting right now. And that plus the P/S mod I might get +10-15% which would be nice, would get me to about 45mpg...
