Just a thought since everyone seems to be really interested in putting their car on a diet maybe we should add a section for weight reduction

The problem with having a forum deditcated just to this, you'll get alot of bogus numbers.

For the most part that's not something you have to look out for here, but depending on the scale lbs can vary quite a bit.

Last summer, when I removed, or weighed a bunch of stuff, almost nothing matched what Brent Franker had on his site. I weighed everything on a fedex scale so I know it's accurate.

The best was all the work I did to remove the EGR to save 3.5lbs and only saved a litte over one lb.
