That's why those little honda hatchbacks with 200whp run 12's in the quarter mile... They weigh nothing.
I know it won't give you more HP, your not doing anything to the engine, but by increasing the power to weight ratio, you proportionally increase HP, if you still weighed "the same". Thats what I mean. If you look at the math, that's exactly what I did... Just sayin
