Dump the stock battery for a smaller, lighter one.

Dump the spare tire and jack assembly...just throw a can of Fix-a-flat in the trunk to replace the spare and you're set!

Carbon fiber driveshaft??? That would reduce rotational mass.....

Ive read alot about light weight brakes as far as rotational mass. Is the money it cost to upgrade worth the pick up in hp.
