Why take them out, they weigh only 10 lbs with the back pieces

Weight off your car can actually free up some hp.

Plus I only let 2 people in my Lude. I have to have my room legs

We just sit on a blanket in the back of my friend's integra. Have you taken the spare and jack out yet. You could take the passenger seat out also.

i have an 85 prelude, took the seats out, carpeted the back so it wasn't an eyesore, and custom built a box with speakers that bolted into the hole to get a hell of a sound system! not hard to do.

SO what is done to your motor to hit that time???? And is that street tires or slicks. (D.specs) But to answer the question i have taken it all out if the car dosen't need it to run its gone. The hole thing with the Ludes are the weight they are fat cars and need to lose some weight and then you can take alot and i mean alot of different kind of cars. I say leave it out and make room in your trunk for a fuel cell and get rid of the stock heavy *** gas tank. and find or have one made that fits pretty good in side the wheel well and then drop another 2/10's of a sec or even 3/10's. Or i was tring to find a bucket seat that would fit in the back like a chouch so you can stick at least one friend in the back side ways. BUt any way you can lose that weight. If you get under 2650 let me know cause that is where i am stuck at i can't find anything else to lose, The only thing left to change that i can think of is my hood and new front kit and fenders. And if any one is in CALI let me know i can get the hook on carbon fiber fenders and predator carbon fiber hoods, and soon carbon fiber kits.

2650lbs? My car weighted in at 2525. It's a 93 si, removed whole a/c system, carbon fiber hood, spare tire, got rid of the stock 22lb stock rims and got enkei rp01 and powder coated them black, removed rear seat so I have more trunk room, removed that rubber **** that is all over the trunk floor/rear seat location, removed pass seat, removed red paint and painted car yellow (that was like 100lbs right there... hehe), removed stock jack ... it's useless anyway... my doorpanels were out when I weighted it, but I keep those in for daily driving ... that's about it... stock weight is what ... 2875 or some thin?
