The aluminum pedal board doesn't improve performance, I just like to know
that in a couple of years it won't be rotting. (VWs had metal pedal boards.)
I don't like the wooden pedal board nor the expanding foam that the Porsche
factory used in the worst possible places in the 911 and the 914 bodies during
the 70s.
I removed them from the '72 911 and the '73 and '74 914s that I've owned.

In fact, when I'm "gettin' it" I remove everything that I can, the electric motors,
(headlight, fresh air and heater along with all heater and fresh air hoses);
the pedal board; all the crap in the trunks (spare tire, spare clutch cable,
spare throttle cable and fuses); sunglasses, pens, paper, and that small collection
of miscellaneous small screws and nuts from the glovebox;
license plate and bracket; wiper arms; that two ton heat shield over where
the muffler used to be; rubber trunk mat and carpet, jack and tool bag;
the possibles bag with two quarts of spare oil, spare electric fuel pump, wire
crimpers and a few wire terminals and spare relays; and the arm rests from
the doors; even removed the center tray, lighter and the ash tray in preparation.
(almost forgot to mention the back pad and passenger belt.)

Even though they may be light by comparison, singularly, collectively it's almost
equal in weight of a passenger.
...whew...I'm tired just typing it.
