Default small animals...I don't care who you are...that's funny! LOL

I can just see the squirrels now..."Oh ****, have you seen that blue car with the squirrel catcher on the front!?!?!"

I do think, that for the sake of appearance and stealthiness(don't know if that's a word or not)it might be worth considering.

Default That's already done on this system....There is a velocity stack in the Pass Intercooler area!

The headlight ram air is usually reserved for racing days unless of course your a crazy lil' bastard that drives around like this all the time ; ))

I'm not serious enough about it to start doing mods that make it virtually undriveable.

Wouldn't that negate the weight-savings?

Default Virtually undriveable? You don't know what you're talking about...

It was 29 degrees out this morning and the car started right up immediately.

All of the weight reduction modifications I'm going to be making are easily irreversible and won't detract from any of the cars' luxuries such as power everything, air conditioning, etc.

Default So the OEM battery size is extreme overkill? I find that hard to believe.

If everything works normally with your smaller, lighter battery, then there is no need for the larger, heavier OEM battery. Somehow, I have a feeling that the OEM battery is larger for a reason.
