Does the mini starter change the "Chrysler sound" of start up?

Yeah, seven pounds is seven pounds; but I don't drive an ounce-pinching race car, either. I put on seven pounds after Taco Tuesday and a six pack of beer. That ain't gonna change. Seven pounds is less than a gallon of gas, so I can just drive fifteen miles and lose that much. :)

The big thing I do like about the mini starter is there seems to be a lot fewer instances of heat soak and hot start issues, probably a side benefit of the smaller size and more clearance.
