I think you would have a point if they were lithium cells but lead acid has a much lower energy density. Less electrons per Kg.

Hey bro, we said nothing about the front pipe.
That's all on you if you don't know how to follow directions.

Dude. Way back in post #2 I said to put helium in the spare. You didn't even bother to read that did you? You also have it upside down so of course you get under steer. Bloody noobs.

While not a performance issue, I found that adding a chameleon to the engine bay takes care of the crickets. This does weight the front end by 1 Chameleon weight, which had the added effect of offsetting the lower grip of the front wheel drive portion of my Subaru (all Subarus are all AWD)
