I thought the question was sub cult feats were at 13 compared to cult feats at effective 12 (17-5).
Assuming that was the question then feats bought in 100 words, or from sub cults are not exempt from improv penalties, so these would be at 12-5 = 7.
To use feats actively you must be a devotee... Most initiates use Affinities as augments (no -5), so 17 would give +2 and 13 would give +1.
A more rewarding option would be to say she is a initiate of Cult/Subcult as part of your Magic keyword, avoiding having to say anymore in your 100 words, and gaining the subcults affinity at 17. (As an initiate of the subcult she must be an initiate of the cult, you can then drop the subcult later if you wish).
