Default Weight problems.

I was thinking to myself what ind of stuff can I do to my car for no money that will help it perform better, then I thought get rid of some weight. What are somethings I can get rid of, first thing I thought of was the back seat, whats some other junk. I'm also gonna shave the spolier and othre stuff too. Thanks for any help.

There are alot of things to do. Different platforms have different things.



What year/make/model are you driving? And yes MODEL makes a difference.
