My Ti won't be a dd after i gut and as for carpet well i have to keep it in because as we all know underneath the carpet there is like 4" of foam in the front seat and the rear there is just bare metal thanks for opinon. I lean to gut at the monent. __________________ SOLD so sad..... | | | 11-07-2007, 07:05 PM | #4 | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 | ya if you are keeping it for track then gut it. and put that cage in it! as a lot of people say every pound helps! so lighten her up also the car looks great! like the white with the fogs and hood | | | 11-07-2007, 07:58 PM | #5 | doesn't care about you.

If it's a race car go all out. __________________ '99 Dinan M3 | | | 11-07-2007, 08:49 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: 909-281 Posts: 233 | Ok this of for DustenT When I bought my TI the first owner had the car setup for track use only.
