Have a postal scale, been weighing stuff.

Mr.Woolery · 05-28-2006, 11:40 PM

Got a postal scale from work, and have been getting accurate weights for several pieces either installed or removed from the car:

-Pitcrew/APR/Tuckin99/DIY one piece front clip: 25lbs
-Sportmax wheels: 15.5lbs each
-FMII steel intercooler (removed): 18lbs.
-Track Dog Racing intercooler (replaced FM's): 10lbs.
-Airbag computer/backup battery/bracket (removed): 1.25lbs
-Stock trunklid (removed): 15lbs.
-APR CF trunklid (replaced stock): 6lbs.

I'll weigh more stuff as the parts become available--they're currently buried under other parts. :rofl:

You may want to look into replacing the FMII downpipe. If I recall it's a cast piece and the new one from BEGi is welded steel. May be a few pounds there.
