Honestly bro, 40 lbs tops on a Porsche sunroof. Call a reputable Porsche dealer/service guy maybe he would know. There is a guy at Champion in Pompano Beach that I trust. PM me I'll give you his info. Or you can talk to a guy at TPC racing. He is pretty much their crew chief. He should know. He's owned and driven every Porsche known to man.

- 18" lightweight forged alum. Enkei wheels - 30 lb
- SS Race muffler - 25 lb
- SS S-Pipe/X-pipe - 15 lb
- Delage Sport CF Airbox with under drive pullies - 10 lb
- Lightweight Odysee battery - 32 lb
- delete rear seats - 50 lb
- Replace front seats with Sparco REV w/ alum. hardware - 110 lb
- rear trunk base empty - 20 lb
- Replace rear trunk with CF CSL-type - 10 lb
- CF double sided dry carbon front bumper - 16 lb
- CF double sided dry carbon Hood - 15 lb
- CSL CF roof going from stock moon roof spec - 90 lb
- LWFW (lightweight flywheel) - 17.5 lb
- Break kit - 35 lb
- Total weight drop:
With 1 front seat - 475.5 lb
note:
dropping weight off unsprung components (wheels, tires, brakes
and suspension) is more effective than dropping weight of sprung weight
(components like body panels). For e.g. dropping unsprung weight is almost
a factor of 2 to give the equivalent effective weight dropped. The 30 lb
dropped of your wheels since its also rotating weight saved will be
multiplied by a factor of 4, so those 30 lb are like 120 lb effective
weight dropped.

The SRT can go man go I wish it wasnt so heavy though, eh what can ya do. I am not about to under go some crazy custom CF process on a fuking Dodge lol.
I am considering running the 997 into the nearest lake, it is so not "special" , it is the slowest thing in the garage, it may take my lawn mower for a run but thats it.

That stuff is alot of $$ and frankly I don't have it
soooo. I am not a balla like everyone else here, I am a working man. Where do you live in the swampy state?I am not the best driver by a longggggggggg shot and there is a bug in the tranny on my 2-3 shift (very common btw) that hits you w/ a bit of a delay. I have to remap the ECU (done at dlr) , if they will do it is another issue though. I did a , cant remember exaclty ,but like 12.01 one night. Bascially its an 11 sec car w/o me at the wheel.

Oh wow this thread is truley an embarasment to the M3 community. Kevin next time i am in seattle i am kicking your butt!!!!
But i would just like to give my apologies from m3forum we do not condone this type of behaviour on our forum and its a shame it had to travel here! But it is interesting to see that a popular scammer is posting here also.

I have to say that... if FI and all the mods can make an M3 so much faster than a 911S (which I do believe... no sarcasm here)... I can't WAIT to drive my FI 911S!!! Right? Right? Who feels me here???
That's where this conversation should have went. It's like saying... "I could kick Mike Tyson's ***... if I had a gun and he was tied up. Yeah!"
