Adding lightness to a GT2 RS?
#17
The GT2 RS exhaust is full titanium and I think the battery is also lithium Ion. I do like the idea of deleting the cats, they are never helpful, especially in Turbo cars...I would assume that would require a new exhaust and dealing with the CEL codes that would be thrown. Perhaps something to consider post warranty.

For "putting" around the island, if you're wanting to effect of something lighter and more agile work with a speed shop and get your alignment setup more aggressively with a focus on toe.

Are you bored?
I would guess that you haven't explored 50% of what the car can do and you want to lighten it. I'd invest in driving/experiencing the car and lessons / coaching vs taking one of the best street performing cars (with very light wheels) you can buy and trying to make it better. Just my 2c but its your money and its a free world..

Each of these are within 100 lbs of each others, thus losing weight is a futile waste of money.

The best bang for the buck is smallest lithium battery you can live with. Then super lightweight wheels( you already have). Carbon racing seats can also save a ton vs. stock umpteen-way seats.Titanium exhaust - very expensive, and not gonna save that much on a car with pretty light exhaust like ours. Then go any tools, that useless gue for tires if you have it, empty washer tank, always half-tank of gas. CF doors is not easy to live with. Same for lexan rear glass.

Cats and exhaust manifolds are definitely not Ti but the rest of the exhaust is. If I could ask where you got your inconel hiflow cats and were they plug and play or were additional piping required to fit? Any CEL?
