Did you happen to weigh the stock parts vs SPL?
Sorry, I didn't weigh them to see the difference. I will say that in most cases the SPL arms seemed to be same or maybe slightly lighter weight compared to the stock arms. Certainly not much difference in weight, of course it's hard to tell with such light parts to start with.

I'll be doing a CF driveshaft, an oil pickup, and an oil pan baffle when I do my headers, FF, and tune next year. I'm looking forward to it. Just finished another oil change today and I've got a track box and switches to go in at some point in January. Been busy over the holidays, going to try to get a bunch of stuff prepped in January before I travel again in February so I can be back on track in March. I need new tires too and AD08Rs are discontinued :/
