Even on the TT? I swear my Turbos are spooling up faster.
Also, props to Wyovino for his detailed step by step instructions. I couldn't have done it without you man.

I just did the same to mine, I can really feel the weight reduction, which you would think has got to add 1 maybe 2 MPH to the top end!

not really measured in hp, its more like you gained a few seconds, due to better power to weight ratios

you loose all the weight savings by putting crap there.... the mod is a wash, but only if you put stuff there.

Certainly a weight reduction. Also if you feel better as a driver, you will go faster. Biggest mod is behind the wheel.

Well done. I think with that mod you will be way faster than other TTs Cabs around. You will be the envy of other TTs
