				Losing weight
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
			I was running numbers and a 99' Boxster has 201hp and weights 2776lbs unmodified. 
 
With my exhaust my Boxster has at least 206hp and weights 2760lbs. 
 
Now if I remove the spare tire and all the other extra crap I have in the car I think I can easily get it around 2700ish. 
 
Has anyone removed close to 100lbs from there Boxster?  Did you actually notice a difference? 
 
I'm just trying to get as much from it as is(while keeping it a daily driver) before I decide to buy headers and other bolt ons.  I figured losing weight and extra crap would be better then adding bolt-on parts.  With bolt on parts I only gain power and potential problems.  If I can shed weight properly the car should be quicker,brake better and handle better. 
 
Thanks for the input!
