Is it really worth it? I mean in term of performance, would i notice any difference say if i just lost rear seats 2 amps sub + box set of 6 x 9 in a haevy mdf stealth shelf thing, spare wheel and 13mm mdf false floor in boot?

Dont really want to fully strip what do u think?

if ur talking ice yes i think would but ice werent there to start with was it

personally i dont think so, although im bound to get my head bit off, ive had my interior totally stripped when my retrim was done all i had in was driver seat and i noticed nout but excessive noise

id do what ive dont lose the ice/spare wheel and replace with tin of tyre weld, but as broster an that are bound to comment the look is nice to if thatw what u want

what size engine you got mate?
and is it really worth it? it will shave roughly 1 second off qtr mile time,

if you are planning on doing loadsa track days etc etc then yeh strip out the interior, but if just planning on ragging round town racing peeps then its not worth it,

stripping interiors wont be the next big thing im modifying cuz its not showy?

Track car yes.

Everyday car no.

Mine is totally stripped and I honestly don't think it's any quicker, it might feel it due to be noisy and cold but thats about it.

Broster agrees that it makes no real difference on the road. Any benefit is negligible.
Even with an extra engine in the boot, the car isn't noticeably slower.
