If you own a 2gen and you have a manual for 2gen's it should work, I dont see why it wouldn't.

its easy... the bottom pieces have two little pull tabs on the front, pull those and the seat will pop up. once that's up you'll see that there are two bolts that are holding the top piece in place. i wanna say they're 14mm, pull those out and you're good

gutting the interior wont make it faster. fractions of a second at best. just beef up the motor, tranny, and but a bigger turbo. that will solve your problem
