what does the header and cat back have to do with weight reduction?
the link below is exactly what you can take out and shows the pounds being saved.

It's a daily driver with a stock D16Z6, Ditching A/C and P/S would just be an inconvenience. A/C and P/S will come probably come out when it's swapped. Along with half the interior

mine is a daily driver as well, just get some pipes and you wont even notice it has no PS.

as is used 2 times a year where I live so it depends where you are. why rag on the z6? its a nice solid engine .
