How hard would this be to do? And should I? And why? I'm bored looking at crap on Ebay. I should go to sleep....

There really isn't any point for you to do it.
That's a mod made more for race cars. So they can disconnect it from outside the car plus it takes weight off the front of the car for better launches.

yeah...thats for weight distribution...better traction for the right rear tire. i thought about doing it just to clean up the engine bay but i changed my mind. i think you have to run them under the car and put looms over them or somethin. not sure

Nice find!

I am planning on this as well as losing my inner fenders. I plan to make it work under the carpet.

Its primarily used for drag, as everyone else has said. But its something good to do to clean up your engine bay a little, especially if you have alot of items that need power (amp, subs, aftermarket lighting, etc), less wires and less clutter.
