[QUOTE="sneaky94cobra, post: 15477737, member: 150777"] Just remember non free weight reduction is always more expensive then power modification. So if you are going to do it do the free weight. In my experience it takes about 100lbs of weight to see a difference at the track. If you are autocrossing they sometimes have a car weight system that allows you to see weight at each corner and move the weight to even the distribution out. Also removing weight from random location is not always the best. Two places that are the best is front end weight and rotational mass. I have found that rear seat deletes and removing the spare tires and jack makes the car noise and unsafe if you have a blowout and need a spare. Now if your at the track feel free but if your daily drive the car its not worth it. At the track two things you can quickly remove off the front for an easy 25 pounds is the front sway bar and the strut tower brace. Saves weight and improves weight transfer, easily worth a tenth in the quarter mile if you got the tire to launch it. [/QUOTE]
