Default Weight of items, cant seem to find

Hi Chaps.

Can anyone tell me what the megan manifold weight is?

The weight of the stock mufflers?

The weight of the stock springs and swift springs?

I'm trying to work out how much weight i have lost.

Thanks

Stock exhaust is 57lbs I think. Sorry its been a while since i weighed it. The numbers are floating around. You probably can find most of it in the racing/competition section of S2KI

Most headers reduce weight of the OEM by about 10lbs (dont remember the stock weights though)

As far as the springs go they are probably a bit lighter, but the way to lose the most weight would be to switch to coil overs they can reduce 3-4lbs a corner in most cases.

Hope that helps

I dont know if you are going to be able to find someone who chopped of the mufflers and then weighed them...If thats what your asking? Most people replace the whole system, if you did not then I doubt you are saving that much weight.

Estimate seems a little high for swapping out two mufflers and springs and buying an aftermarket header
