I'm guessing u have a TII. most gutters are NA's that dont have much power to begin with and are willing to go the extra mile for that extra 5mph


i wieghed all the crap that i took out (on a bathroom scale) trust me.....it adds up.
I took out at least 300lbs (i didnt wiegh everything)
Stock HP is 145@2625lbs
which means for every 18.1034482759lbs that is removed, u gain 1hp.
Or you could be smart about it and sell your car to buy a Foxbody or T/A for the same price...in autocrossing, road racing or even tearing up mountains or backroads your skill as a driver will make you much faster than 200lbs of weight reduction..

You need to get creative with the console that is left over as it will just hang there. Some sort of bracing or etc is recommended as it will slide around and generally be annoying.

Im not hating. While my DD is down Im rockin' a full interior in my T2 so I can BREATHE! And on top of that everytime I crack my window because its hot, I get bombarded with exhaust fumes. Until my DD is up and running again Im repping the OEM look.
