for local BSP competition, working on your driving and the proper tires will imporve your times much more than any weight reduction can.

 

Take out your CD player def. All your carpet. Strip your trunk . Also I dont think the rs has the ACD.. you should just buy a RS. You cant drive the 6sp. daily without these things. its will prove to be a challenge.

 

I agree but wieght reduction within spec is a free mod. And I already race on 285/30/18 V710s

 

The IX RS definitely has ACD, along with the factory 3 gauge cluster with boost readout under the hvac controls.





Everyone asks me if that gauge cluster is aftermarket and they look at me funny when I tell them it's from the factory.

 

5-speed gearbox will also save you wait and give you more accurate gear changes.
