I missed that.
!Weight threads:
My 93 will be around a three thousand pound raceweight with ac, power steering, two leather seats, a 10 point, and all interior panels. I'm not done yet though, but there's good ideas.

Jantzer98ss' threads. His car will be around a 2500lb raceweight. Some of his stuff is what some would consider a little crazy, but it works and looks awesome:

looked through the links thanks for taking time to collect them all
there is NO way i would do any of that to my nice car.
no sawzall will touch my car, no unbolting of safety equipment
i had to replace the carpet with the new roll cage, i went with a 'replacement' carpet that is quite a bit lighter which is good but it is genuinely shitty carpet and i would rather have stock nice carpet and deal with the weight.. and i would not surprise myself if given the chance i rip this stuff out throw it away and put stock carpet back in there.
everybody sets their stuff up different. i like my car as a good useable comfy well rounded vehicle.. no hollowed out race car.
i have been in contact with bmr about changing out my subframes to a lighter style, and i have a lighter fab rear on order, other than that i will not be doing any 'hacking' so i guess my weight reduction is complete

Been there, done that. Used the ACC lightweight and got tired of the ripples...back to stock....
6 bolt heads/block looks good....should hold the boost well.
How high are you going to rpm the wetsump?
