Stock Exhaust

Muffler Section - 26.8lbs (highly inefficient)
Y-Pipe - 11.6lbs
Resonated Y-Pipe - 15.6lbs
Total: 54.0lbs

STILLEN Exhaust

Muffler Section - 39.6lbs (proven huge hp gains)
Y-Pipe - 11.3lbs
Resonated Y-Pipe - 14.4lbs
Total: 65.3lbs

Difference: +11.3lbs and 18whp

Also note that the weight is at the lowest point of the car, over the rear wheels, which will increase traction.
Thanks I also got a call from Dean stating the info he gave me was on the shipping weight so just a little "lost in translation". Another reason why I'm more than happy to be dealing with Stillen - you guys are very much involved in the development and performance of your parts AND you care about what the consumer wants. Thanks for the correction!
