lol, a weight maybe?? idk, but yeah, same thing you can do to any car applies. open up the intake and exhaust, couple hundred bucks, 20-30 horses i'd guess. plus people claim its better gas mileage . ummm, the carpet and stuff in the back isnt neccessary, and u can butcher the car anywa u want, many cars run w/o the air pumps etc.

you can always take out the back seat... You dont need no stinken back seat!! haha.... yank out the A/C. thats what you have windows for. Get some exhaust. Nothing sounds better than a mustang with exhaust. Grab the nearest Summit or Jegs mag and have at it.
Congrats on the 5.0!!

Dont take out your AC or backseat for weight.  Not worth it.
