Trying to think outside the lines, so bare with me. this is for those looking for every last inch of performance. daily commuters may stop reading now.

most cars have an issue of frontal weight. seems everything that is removable is in the rear. but removing these items only creates front-rear balance issues.

that as my guild-line: why not remove the power steering motor-pump, and place it in the rear? should be easy to run a couple lines to the drive. little thinking on how to get air coolant might be required.

end result: you can put your rear seats back in, so the kids can ride along.

wotcha think? am i crazy? or genius?

I wouldn't waste the time, effort, or money. The difference it would make would be negligable. Spend your money and time on more fun things.
