make your car go faster.. get rid of stuff you dont REALLY need.. get rid of your A/C, get a torch and cut off all the extra underside of hood, someone mentioned the back seat.. dont drive your friends around tell them to get their own ride... then if you have a sun roof... gank the motor, I'm sure you could glue a handle to it =P oh and you probably have lots of stuff in your trunk so grab a trash can and play some basketball. As for a spare tire and jack and all that jazz.. invest in triple A and there goes all that weight too.. Last if you want to be really hard core pull up everything on the floor of your interior and pour dry ice on the floor boards and hit it with a hammer.. 80 pounds gone.. give or take some.. if you do that your my hero

power steering.. get rid of that too it weighs alot. And get plexy glass side windows they weighless.

Maybe wont add any hp, but will reduce engine clatter if you do it correctly, valve adjustment, pretty damn easy. Break out the haynes manual, figure out how to get the engine to tdc, then make sure you have a valve spacer tool(a "feeler"). and then adjust all the valves.

Make a Paper-mache' body for your car, and rip out that aluminum/steel/fiberglass body you have now, then replace it with the paper-mache'. Just don't drive in the rain. Also who needs that heavy stearing colum? Rip it out and replace it with a Vice grip. Speakers, Radio, Radiatior, Lights, Get rid of them all. That huge fuel tank that last a whole week weighs too much so replace it with a clear plastic water bottle. Just remember to get out regularly to check how much gas you have.
Then again you could always fill your car with Lead and push it off a cliff. Probably go faster than anything else you could do.

Throttle heater bypass. Take the tube running from your radiator to your TB and the tube that exits the TB and loop them together so that hot radiator fluid doesnt get to your TB. You wont gain hp but youll keep from loosing it as your engine wams up because it will keep your throttle body cooler. You will also notice some improved throttle response.

Also speaking of throttle response, adjust your throttle cable, just unscrew, move a wire, and screw back and BAM! instant throttle response.


Also remember adding things like stickers adds at least 20hp and decals that belong to another make of car is +30hp....so make sure you do this to your Honda Civic SE-R and your Mustang Type-R V-Tec
