Default lightweight? esfo what did you do?

I am curious, my 911 responds in massive ways to reducing weight, and Esfo's comments <a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4b6/msgs/345318.phtml"> on the RS4 thread</a> got me wondering how much and how one would reduce weight of the S4. Reducing weight obviously increases relative HP, but also braking and handling.

Esfo, you said your car weighs 3660lbs right? Thats a massive drop from 3925lbs. What did you do to get there and did you do a writeup of the changes you feel? Did you get it corner balanced to know the weight or are you just subtracting? Is that with you in it and with how much fuel?

Default No, I haven't weighed the car yet. I will as soon as I get back to the track.

I used Audi specs on weight which is 3825 for the sedan with MT6.

Here are a couple of links...
