Take out everything you do not need.
Cut out all unneeded panels and body reinforcements.
Delete every option that you can get rid of like the AC.
On most cars, 15 lbs of weight reduction is equal to almost one horse power.
Go through the power train, and use lightened components. Every lb of reduced recuperating weight will yield the equivalent of a horse power. Alum drive shaft, flywheel, and drilled rotors.
Have fun.

Remove the passenger and back seat. The trunk compartment if you don't need it. If an older solid steal car like my '67 mustang, you can replace the hood, fenders and nearly the entire body with modern lighter components sold on the web.

I consider the record of "enhancements" the different answerer has given you to loosen up your Olds. yet do now not pay attention to the different guy's suggestion of removing the authentic (changing it right into a convertable). this would heavily shrink the motor vehicle's rigidity, and that basically isn't risk-free. Lighter autos are greater effective in that they advance up greater effective, brake greater effective, take care of greater effective, and are average greater effective autos in that they positioned much less rigidity and positioned on on the areas. yet, putting your protection in possibility for the sake of lighter weight isn't extremely smart. i think of you ought to get the aluminum wheels and carbon fiber hood and panels, yet you ought to depart the roof and different significant issues, like the braces, on my own. protection first. overall performance 2d. happy MOTORING.

Take out everything that you don't need. If you are feeling lucky, you can even throw out the spare tire, and the jack. Clean out the trunk, is usually a good place to start.
good luck.
