There's a slip road I used to constantly get to 65mph by the top of...

With stripped out rear (ICE and seats removed) I got upto 76mph on the same stretch (of private road).

I know it's not scientific, but it deffo is faster (this was with the 1.2 16v). The suspension also raised about 15-20mm and the handling feels much nicer -- back end really livened up

Put a false floor down right to the front seats . Yeah the rear seat rest is heavy mate wait till you take it out and you will see. Not hard to take off bolt in the middle at the join and either side

Instead of false floor that will weigh alot, why not put dynamat down then cover with carpet? Surley that will keep out most road noise!

He has a point, but surely it would reduce wait still with a single sheet of cut MDF over everything?
