Hybrid Engine/IMA battery systemThe hybrid have a very different engine and Battery system (IMA), so this forum is for items related to the Hybrid cars alone.
If they are same as the regular cars, please post there instead.
Soon to be new owner here. i learned that some of these cars have lean burn and some dont depending on state? Is it possible to convert a non lean burn car into a lean burn car?
also wondering if there's a 40% current hack mod or lithium battery packs for these cars? i have a g1 insight and have those mods on my car wondering if someone has developed these mods for the HCH?
(pic of my insight to get some attention)

yeah, they are mostly for people worried about gas prices (although when the batteries dies, no one wants to foot the bill...)
also, aside that the most ticketed cars for speeding was the Prius some years ago...
I did not hear about modifications to the 1.3 engine either... Closest one was the HX engine, maybe? I think it was an 1.7L.
The hybrid owners does not come here much, only to ask questions about their issues with their cars...
Battery mods... unsure about those too. They are not likely to be in hypermilling forums either...
Ah. I'm just here for better mpg mods. Figured adding lean burn would get the car better mpg.
lithium swap would be expensive but last longer than stock and some sort of currant hack will make the car more peppy than stock.
