    So, I'm debating if I should should go about this "weight reduction" and try and shed as much pounds as I could. FOR EVERY 60LBS, A TENTH OF A SECOND IS OFF - FTW. What do you guys think of this idea? What do you think I would regret? Anything I need to worry about, besides all the wires? Also, any ideas how I can cover everything up?

    -Thanks. :mitsu::headbang:

    Remove your seats, spare tire, carpet and cardboard in trunk, carpet in interior. Lighter wheels and tires. If you have a sunroof. Your kinda screwed unless you want to buy a carbon fiber roof.

    If this is a dd this will be pretty damn loud compared to normal. I know by experience. I removed my new trunk carpet, spare tire, passenger seat. It all echoes.

    +1 on Jogen's thoughts. I took off the insulation under the hood, foam in all four doorcards, spare, toolkit, etc. Mine is a DD that hauls me and two kiddos around everywhere...so I kept the rear seats, carpet, and panels.
