Gutted interior???

[Melt]

the only time i "gutted" my car was to run wires for the stereo

The only stuff going back in is door panels, dash, center console and seats. Everything is staying as you see it:

thats what im trying to understand.

is the added noise and annoyance worth 40lbs? i find it hard to believe that 40lbs will make THAT big of a difference...

but maybe thats because i drive an 1800lb car from the factory...

It took me some time to get used to the sound but overall the less weight = less drag...I felt a lil different after I had my turbo put in but my stereo system kinda went over the exhaust. So I think it was worth it.

i plan on gutting my trunk and my rear seat, the rear seat just has all theese burn holes from the previous owner and i dont need that stuff in the trunk... ill put seat in teh back when i find ones from a 4door type-R

I had mine completely gutted for a while (No dash, no door panels, no headliner, NOTHING anywhere) True it handles slightly better, but it was noisy as hell so I put everything back in.

I gutted everthing from the front seat backwards in my civic hatch. Sounds the same to me (its a vx). THe civic is just so small i hear everything anyways. my hatch handles way better with no rear interior yes it was worth it to me. This car is my daily driver. I lost around 120 lbs in the rear.

i have my hatch gutted right now, gotta get that weight off the rear wheels to help them doriftos! i'll gut the rear interior when i have a cage to put in.
