Now I'm back to the Rotas and Yokie ES100.
dyno numbers: - 129.29 whp, 140.96 wtq
MPG average --- 30.00 combined
Last summer, I painted a set of OZ alloys white. Here's the finished wheel. It's just Duplicolor spray color and clear, but it's been wet-sanded for a nice glossy finish.

engine/drivetrain upgrades:
AEM underdrive pully kit for alternator and power steering pump. Underdriven on the accesory side rather than from the crank pully. Crank pully is OE.
ACT XACT Streetlight flywheel - 11.9 lbs
ACT heavy duty pressure plate
ACT street disc
Should be about 6.1 lbs. off OE flywheel. According to some engineering calculations I've read online, losing that weight off the flywheel has chassis weight equivalents as follows:
1st gear = 146 lbs. (equivalent chassis weight savings)
2nd gear = 67 lbs.
3rd gear = 36 lbs.
4th gear = 24 lbs.
5th gear - 12 lbs.
TechnaFit S.S. brakelines, Hawks HPS high friction pads, Motul racing brake fluid
12 lbs. weight savings on intake/exhaust components vs. stock. Magnaflow 2.25" S.S. exhaust, DC sports 4-2-1 ceramic coated header, AEM C.A.I.
Pulled out the spare, and all tools...34 lbs savings.
