every 100 lbs equals a tenth on the 1/4. Our cars stock are anywhere from 14-16 seconds stock give or take because of engine setup (ie. 94-98 single port 3.8L, 99-03 split port 3.8L, 04 split port 3.9L, 05+ split port 4.0L). You won't be able to lose enough weight to make a large difference. If you want that extra .10 or so in the 1.4 go ahead and do so, but it won't be as big as you hope it will be. Also when you go racing don't have a ton of gas in your gas tank...that is killer weight.
