Hi all -
Been lurking and harassing folks in their threads long enough. This is in by no means a new journey, but getting ready to really dive deep and figured it would be good to start a dedicated thread. Lots of extremely knowledgeable folks here that I'd love some guidance from along the way
Current;y, the car is still in mostly street trim with the exception of a few safety upgrades and some fun go fast parts. The plan is to cage the car this winter and really go bananas. In the mean time, I plan to start taking smaller steps in preparation for that work.
Just got back from (2) days at VIR and then (2) at Road Atlanta and one thing is evident (outside the new motor being pure insanity) - car needs weight loss.
I'd like to start an agressive weight loss program. Can ya'll provide some recommendations on easy wins outside of seats, driveshaft, and battery? I am thinking about stripping the interior in phases this summer in between track days. Outside of removing interior body panels and stripping the doors, what else can I do? Anyone have insight into what modules/wires are required to stay in the car? Running an aftermarket tune, but it's on the stock ECU.
