I'm just gonna guess that you can't tell if the weight distribution is off driving it on the street. I could be wrong but it seems unlikely

I wont have time to take it to my dads raceshop and use a proper scale but I can try and get a bathroom scale. Total weight is roughly 100pounds from the shipping label so that gives you an idea. Turbo felt like 35-40 pounds on its own lol and no instructions are included but that's okay its not "that" complicated to install. You can also google the greddy manual its very very similar |

Valid point, under normal DD there will be no difference. However on exit ramps during harder street driving maybe it can be felt.

Just get an engine relocation kit to offset the weight. Kinda pricey, though.

My dad used to race oval track ever since I was a kid. I grew up in the shop we had in BC then out here in Calgary he found a mechanic that had a team and truck for the super trucks so he became there driver. Naturally I got to know the team very well so I can use the shop when I need too.
This was a pic I googled of his ride lol |
