True however i'd rather spend money on light wheels, lighter drivetrain components, lighter panels, less fuel, remove aircon, hicas etc etc than rip out the front dashboard with the bloody gauges sitting in the middle looking like the car was just ripped off from parra westfields.
Maybe if it was a 10.5sec car trying to break into the 9's, but hell if its still mucking around in the 14's effort could be put elsewhere...
