I had oversize Grabber ATXs on my minivan. Rode better than factory, felt more confident on the highway, would go anywhere I needed it to, and only hurt 1.5-2 mpg on economy.

If an hour of work isn’t worth 8-10 ft-lbs of torque across the rpm range modding cars isn’t for you.

It’s not really off the wall though.
That’s actually the most capable of the whole list.

Honest answer here:

“Normal” cars generally see noticeable gains from simple mods like intakes and exhausts just because they’re designed around being quiet, passing emissions, and cost more than worrying about performance.

Had an aggressive aluminum wing on my 01 Accent hatch.

That’s a Warm/Hot Air Intake, which draws air from inside the engine bay.

Cold Air Intakes draw cold air from outside the engine bay.

It hasn’t HURT economy any, but I haven’t road tripped it yet to see if there’s any improvement either.

I’m going to say “No Effect”.

1. Many “oversized wheels” are substantially lighter than factory. Others do so to be able to get a better tire even if they gain a few lbs in unsprung weight.

Lowered 2.5" on all four corners.
Rides better than factory on everything but large bumps.
Still has plenty of clearance for daily use.
Handling improved tremendously.

Good thing that lift was nothing but a waste and all for show.....

You’re confusing MTs with ATs.

1. False. Outside of rusting apart, cars last as long as their owner is willing to maintain/repair them.

“Facts” or “What my TV tells me”....

1. ICEs are already on the road and all over the used market, meanwhile millions of EVs and subsequent pollution needs to be produced to catch up.

1. EVs have to be built, this alone accounts for 10+ years worth of emissions on a normal car.

And anywhere over $10k for a used Corolla pushing 100k is lunacy.

Already did.

1. Big Oil has already invested heavily in EV tech. That’s where the sudden push for EVs comes from.

Common course for car thieves to use fake plates which will come back with nothing if they get ran.
