Well, for me it,was the ability to get 4 lbs off the front of the engine. Not for engine performance per se but overall light weighting. I'm not going anywhere as extreme as some folks but I'm doing what I can and a few pounds off the forward extreme of the car helps, if only a little, to reduce MOI.
