Weight Reduction
I'm going to take a look at those rollers today and see what i can do. Also i might get a mini battery. I would like to take my spire tire out but i already know i will need it and a can of fix a flat won't do the job.

I would say if you dont have a wing on a cf trunk you will save between 15-20 pounds. I think I weighed the stock trunk and we guessed around a 10 pound savings on the trunk.
I would say I have a lot of cf. (hood,trunk,wing,grill) among other parts that arnt as helpfull in weight. I didnt notice a difference with my butt dyno.
I read on here by removing the trunk carpet you can save over 10 pounds!?! Plus, dont just get a smaller battery. Move the smaller battery you get to the trunk to better balance the car.
I'm not trying to strip my whole car down i'm just trying to reblance the weight due to the weight i have added such as the Amp and subs, Strut Bars, ect... So i was thinking if i could knock off 30 - 50 pounds they car weight would reblance it's self.
Yeah. I guess to do that without really ripping stuff out would be to go the carbon route. It is a little pricey but you get looks out of it as well.
Another thing you could do is get light weight racing seats. That may save you quite a bit. Mabey a lighter steering wheel (evo wheel mabey).

Ive seen them in the for sale forum on here. You could also try the stealership but that price will be outrageous. mabey a junk yard as well.
ok i will keep an eye out on the forum.
there arent many evos around my area so i doubt i will find one in the junk yard. And the stealership....well i dont want to have to sell a lung for one. lol
thanks

This article is based on a Civic, but it gives you the ideas. Lots of parts and a good idea at how much HP you'll regain. The cars weigh about the same, too.
Look here. (yeah, it's Import Tuner, but a scale doesn't lie. And neither does math.)
