Yea use the stock body kit. The mild and wild body kits weight it down. You could uninstall AWD if you have it since it adds more weight to the car.

Try taking out those beige-colored plates and replacing them with thinner, lighter plastic.

if you have AWD installed use the top plates that held the front end together instead of the plastic top plate that comes with the car.

take a dremel and shave everything in the inside of the body, and drill lots of holes in lots of the stuff on the chassis e.g. battery clips, underparts of the chassis, etc.

you can take the front over off that would cover the awd gears
take the battery clips off and whatever else you can find to replace i guess
