For the points Robert986 mentioned:
1: I had no engine cover at all, unless I was at an SCCA event, but the one I did have was about halfway cut away to make room for the intake.
2. Horns long gone.
3: Windshield wipers, linkages, motors, hell, the whole damn assembly was gone.
4: My wheels are already pretty light, gonna be harder to go much lighter without spending BIG money.
5. I have the GT-everything delete.
6. Lithium battery would save a solid 30 lbs or so.
7. Carbon body panels are hideously expensive.
8. Bulbs? Hmmm......
2,200 lbs is going to be very, very difficult without already chopping a lot off. Mine was at the absolute minimum needed just to drive around (much less street legal) and was still 2,460 (but still perfectly balanced!). You could shave a few pounds more with a lightweight battery and lighter wheels, but that would still have you at about 2,400 or so. I even had a power steering delete and a/c was completely removed except for the lines under the car, and those are aluminium and weigh nearly nothing.
