Quoted from Buschurracing.com.

"Weight Savings (that won't kill you)
Remove the padding from the bottom of the carpet.

Remove the tar-like sound deadener on the floor of the interior and on the firewall.

Get rid of the spare tire, jack, tools, rear seats, rear deck lid, rear hatch carpet, metal brackets in the rear hatch, and the heat shields in the driveshaft tunnel.

Convert from power steering to a manual rack.

Get lighter wheels and tires."

If you have a 200lb girlfriend. Get one thats around 120lbs. Thats a 80lbs saved. Since 89lb girls would probably fly out the window once boost hits.
