Since the upgraded powerplant produces 39 hp (28 kW) and 62 lb-ft (84 Nm) more than the stock example, the performance should still improve, despite the additional pounds.
As some have said before, if that 121lbs weight gain is all in the front (which I am sure it is since that’s where the changes are) the weight distribution is further tilted forward....hello understeer
