I'm building a '13, 1,100T

[Turbo11T]

Lightweight battery and exhaust is about 25 lbs. After that it starts to get expensive. I am going to build a meash hood this summer with hopes of dropping 10-12lbs. Also Planning to build a divorced 2.5 downpipe. I don't want to spend the money on carbon fiber. I think 250 hp with 35-40lbs off the stock sled should put it at 520 dry and should rip.

How do you get 60lbs off that sled? 100Lbs? Method and cost for each?

From another post I did:

-10 lbs for battery $250, battery relocate 1lb free
-16lbs for exhaust $200
-18lbs for carbon hood/cold air intake $1500
-5lbs for seat $500
-15lbs for carbon tank $1800
-12lbs for carbon tunnel $3500
-15lbs for carbon skid $4000
-5-7lbs for front suspension $1000?

Only thing stopping how much weightloss is the wallet

Where do you guys think the development of this sled is going to go? Do you think there is much room for AC to radically improve either the engine or chassis? Wondering how much I want to sink into my 13 1100T...

Prolly right. Second year on this chassis, should go for at least 2-3 years more. The turbo Yami guys haven't had an upgrade in years.
