There are a good amount of cars making 405-415rwhp with a basic tune and exhaust, and thats really without doing alot of messing around with the Ti-VCT > [@FS: 2000 Ford Contour Sport v6 DOHC](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/fs-2000-ford-contour-sport-v6-dohc/32765/12): > > This thread needed some spice, I am just looking for a friendly multi-sided debate. Don’t think of it as me trying to tear you down 😉 Oh no worries dude, Im used to the gm guys jumping in our shit everytime we do somethin good :lol. > [@Dread"](#): > > Somebody did post up on another thread on either mustangforums or LS1 about the extent of the weight reduction. From what I remember it had no passenger seat or rear seats, spare removed, and driver seat was replaced with something lighter weight. It was nothing too radical from what I remember but with it all added up it probably dropped at least 200 pounds. Yeah, nothing real drastic, they didnt take the radio out, ac, anything like that. Nothing your average enthusiast couldnt do before heading to the track. Hell, every mustang Ive owned Ive put a rear seat delete kit in, not like people actually fit back there anyways lol. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/first-turbo-2011-5-0/253816)._
