The way out is through

O M G...

They turned this:


Curb Weight: 2,762 lbs
1/4 Mile:16.3 @ 84.0 mph
60-foot:2.9 sec.
0-60 mph:8.6 sec.

into this:

Curb Weight:1,674 lbs
1/4 Mile:14.3 @ 93.2 mph
60-foot:2.6 sec.
0-60 mph:5.8 sec.

And only gained 2 seconds in the 1/4 mile. But they claimed it was "free", nevermind the total loss of resale value... I'd say that "mod" cost them about $10,000. For $10k they could have pulled off the body kit and installed an SR20DET and gone faster in a cool car.
