I'm about to go down this route myself. 2 10" subs and dynamat in doors and trunk/rear deck area. I try to think of it has having a girl in the car with me except it's a little better because this car is front heavy anyway.

If you're an audiphile and you need good sound then to me it's worth it. The 3% time where it matters when I'll be on track I can just take the sub box out of the car and shed 50-60 lbs easily. For the 97% of the time where I'm on the street cruising the killer sound will be much appreciated.

As others have said tho, a light muffle savs quite a bit of weight as also does a 1 piece aluminum driveshaft which is half the weight of the stock one. get some light wheels to go with and I bet you will be pleasantly surprised with the results.
