it wont have that much effect on it. just put the battery in the trunk, remove the AC, and get a carbon fiber hood. problem solved.

I think superstreet or sportscompact did a piece on this months ago. I thought they said it would be almost 50/50. I just moved so I gotta dig that issue out or just look it up on the Mckinney motorsports website. Maybe they have some info there.
