george,
that's great! how about a quick rundown on what you've removed? what motor/tranny combo do you have? it's a pretty safe bet you've scrubbed away a/c..

afterburn, sounds like a fun car. I'll have to weigh my car one day. Mine never had a/c and after reading your post, I'm getting kind of curious.

Pics would be nice, tho. :-)
