How noticeable is the weight loss from a lighter weight system?
I

 

I actually have a T1R 63mm Sparrow all stainless up for sale..........the weight loss is significant compared to the OEM exhaust, half the weight.

 

if you get a single SS it is much cheaper then a dual and weighs around 20Lbs or less very noticable difference in weight and also in tq

 

if you get an Invidia for $600 you'll save 25lbs as well

get a V2--it's more refined sounding than the V3. oh yeah and you won't notice the weight savings. it will be 100% placebo

 

Just make sure you buy ear plugs if you purchase either a single or an Invidia.

 

I have no plans for a single or Invidia.

Invidias too loud and I'm not fond of the look of a single on an AP2.

 

the formula starts out at around 1whp per 11lbs lost... (ratio goes down the lighter you get obviously)

so if you loose 40 lbs you gain about 3.6 whp




I know that when I had to put my OEM back on to get my J's repaired, the hesitation was noticable...
it took me a week to get used to my "pokey" OEM set up.


-- Butt dyno FTW --


but seriously - if you get 3 or 4 hp because of the better breathing and 2 or 3 for the hp/lbs --- that's noticeable.

 

There is also the J's options. The 60 rs single is about 12 pounds resonated, roughly 5 hp increase and 45 pounds lost. The 45 pounds is roughly equal to 3 hp. $1200.

 

Thanks, I couldnt remember the formula.
2 "hp" for the Tanabe, 3+ "hp" for the Amuse....$2000 difference. Thats a persuasive argument.

 

No singles for me.
