I did the front bumper delete, removed the front swaybar and moved the stock battery to the rear.
I noticed a difference just taking off from a stop on everyday driving.

I did it as a groupe weekend project. Made the SUX2BU ram air, no washer bottle, underhood AC, bumper support. 12.95-110 was best, worked it to a 12.62-112. I remebed I started getting 1.9x 60's on normal TnT nights in the street tire lanes, form 2.1s
weight I will post times as soon as Friday rolls around. Yesterday I took off the front sway bar and brackets, ac (already had the belt off, just lost the weight) and ac radiator, and front bumper and styrofoam. I have times before (1.77 60' and 8.09 1/8th) so we can compare them. I figured it all was worth 60-70 lbs. I'll let you know as soon as I have the times.

When you relocate the battery to the rear, ware do you put it so you can still keep the T Top holders?
By the way, dont crash without those supports in or your fooked. Not saying your gunna get hurt, but, insurance will rape you.
