Those you mentioned are minor in weight to whats already there.
Maybe 20 lbs.

There's a local guy here who has an awesome system in his car.
Pair of 10" custom, cabinet, multiple amps etc.
Sounds awesome.

But with the extra 100 lbs, now he's doing all kinds of performance upgrades to get back his performance.

Case in point, the GT2 RS.
No door handles, no back seats, no nav etc.
Weight reduction is what it's all about.
