Generally, and obviously there are conditions that will change the outcome. But as a general rule, 100lbs = .10 second. You can see that its close with the equation that was outlined above.

Could you go on a diet?

Liposuction. Wear a halfshirt and a speedo instead of real clothes. Flipflops instead of real shoes. How committed are you to speed? Just kidding.

I would agree that hoods and trunks are not worth it as first mods.

You could chop up the car if you want to with the mods listed above but I wouldn't touch the car. You have the best of everything. I would get the right stall, slicks, line lock (if you don't already have one) and practice launching.
That car should be scary fast with that turbo and intercooler.

Just my .02.
