Cheapest way to shave weight for ANY car is to hit the treadmill and cut some fat off
 I can't even count how many times iv seen obese people talk about how they are saving weight in the car with a titanium exhaust, cf/al panels, billet intake, light seats, replacing glass with plexy etc.. All that weight saving and they shave like 100kg max for like $20k.. Yet they are 60-70kg overweight.. Lol
