Punisher ZL1 - Build Thread
Nothing crazy but I wanted to put this all in one place. I am doing a combination of mods to increase HP and also reduce weight. Also doing a few one off cosmetic pieces. Weight loss stands at 110.4lbs based on all the below. Still looking at Racing Brakes rotors, a lightweight battery, and some BMR suspension mods to further reduce weight. I will update the thread as I continue.

I also took off the engine cover.
No ABS or traction control issues with the change in tire size?

No issues so far. The car breaks loose when I jump on it but that was also the case with the 20X11 wheels.

So where did the 110 lb weight loss come from? The seats?

Wheels and tires were good for a 49.2lbs reduction. Seats saved another 34lbs over stock. SW exhaust was good for 18lbs. Rest was removing things like the engine cover at 2.2lbs and all the junk in the trunk.

Love the Breyton Wheels... I saw on Tire Rack they had it reduced from like 1k each to under $200 but they didn't have the QTY. I would have been all over it.

Stock wheels are 28lbs front and 28.6lbs rear assuming the black ZL1 wheels. The silver ZL1 wheels weigh more.
