lol, no like lightweight pulley kit, aluminum flywheel, CAI/SRI, axle-back muffler, lighter wheels, torque dampener, tighter/lighter springs (for less hobby-horsing), weight reduction, Maybe even a Limited slip differential.

The lightweight NST pulley kit brought my MPGs from @ 30 to 35

your lighter wheels will have to wear stock-sized tires to help with fuel mileage. which means your yaris will now look silly as all hell.

True. I've currently got the 7-spoke toyota alloys & have no clue what they weigh. I'd like to upgrade in the future though.
