As I mentioned on the other forum, it can be done but I had a shop do my car.
There are some wires that can go, but cut the wrong one and the car will be useless.
As mentioned before, either tear it all out and go with a stand alone ECM like the new AEM setup or have someone very knowledgeable handle it. Don't just start cutting wires.
Currently I'm down to 3355 lbs. without my carbon fiber parts....

On that note I bet that thing handles like a completely different car, what are the big things you have pulled to achieve that sort of weight loss?

Sunroof panel would be a custom piece. Lightest would be made out of carbon fiber. You can buy the sheet and trim to fit. Another option would be to take dimensions and see if they match closely to another make that is already out there...
