I'm at 3350 with 1/2 tank of gas, all carpet, dash, door panels, AC, heat, stereo and communications in place, GTS cage and seat delete, gutted trunk and gutted sound deadening in rear seat area. I also deleted my wipers and washer reservoir. Based on your build I would expect your car to be closer to 3000 to 3100 lbs.
I think we have to assume the goal is to stay in TT3. Otherwise, given the effort on this build, I would expect the car to be quite a bit lighter. Being NA and not having a full cage.....this car could get down to sub-2900lbs, but then you'd basically get dumped straight into TT1.....I'm guessing you'd see some super stiff competition.
