Stock Exhaust Weight
Any of the lucky few who've received their cars (BRZ or FRS) want to weigh the stock muffler? I'm curious to see how much weight can be saved by aftermarket exhausts! Thanks!

According to Fujitsubo cat-back is 18.6 kgs.

The whole catback then is roughly 41lbs. I'm curious to see a direct comparison of aftermarket exhaust system weights. Like most cars, a set of custom headers should save a ton of weight over the cast manifolds.

The HKS Spec-L claims half the weight of stock.

seems like we will need to add a spreadsheet to our exhaust thread with weights of each!

Ugh, now I gotta dig through old threads to confirm... gimme 5 minutes!
Yep, you're right. Pre-cat. I think I read Draco-REX say it and I just regurgitated. You corrected him, too.
