Swaps + Insight = oxymoron. The point of the car is too get superb fuel mileage, not run 13's in the 1/4.

Point of correction. A completely stock Insight can run a 17.1. I know the guy who holds this record. Of course that was getting the tires stick hot and launching at 5 grand, maybe something you shouldn't do every day.
