Default weight reduction

Just curious as to whether I'm the only crazy person always looking for stuff to rip out of his car.

So far I've removed

Big piece of rear sound deadening
Cigarette lighter and ashtray, related hardware
Driver's side floor mat (mostly because it pisses me off how it slides around)
A/C compressor, all lines up to the firewall, condensor, and A/C fan on the radiator.
New header is lighter than the old one.
Intake tube that sucks air by the top of the radiator, rubber piece that splits the flow between that and the intake resonator which is also removed (had no idea my intake could sound so throaty and motorcycle-like )
Huge friggin bracket that bolted to the bottom of the intake manifold that was like 18 inches long the held up the stock header.
That's all I can remember for now, there might be a couple other little things.

Next thing is to start attacking more of the sound deadening :exnbp:
I had the spare and stuff out because that was getting me nervous because I don't have a cell. :ugh:
