According to Wilwood the hat, rotor, and caliper weigh 24.6lbs. I believe the OEM setup is 31 lbs.

Love just about everything on that car!! I highly recommend the Borla catback for you if you ever get sick of that flowmaster. It has the right amount of noise when you get on it and the stainless steel is really nice.

P.S. Did you get those bride seats?? If not, you should they look amazing.

Thanks. I went back to the OEM exhaust and am happy with it. I always wanted the Borla catback, I just could never find a deal on one. I think I'm going to stick with the OEM cat-back to be safe.

No, I didn't get the bride seats. I think that will be way down the road. It's still my daily driver.

I received my Carbotech XP-10 pads. Unfortunately, I over-torqued the end of my brake line and cracked the metal piece that seals around the fitting. Contacting Wilwood today to get one rushed to me. Hoping to get some impressions back soon! Keep posted.

very clean build keep it up bro

Finally got things working on the brakes. Wow it has a lot of bite. I have to be careful on cold tires so I don't flat spot one. The ABS is working it's tail off to keep the tires from locking up even at high speeds. Very anxious to get out on a back road and push it a little harder.

18" wheels (for reference):

That was quick! Glad you got it sorted out, sounds like a hell of a setup.

Amazon tends to have $150-$200 off from time to time on the Borla Cat Back just so you know.

FYI to any followers of this thread, if you know anyone interested in buying my car, I'm looking to sell. I've decided on moving to a 4 door (Cadillac CTS-V).

Ironic... I'm looking at a CTS-V Coupe myself.

Update:
I just purchased a Cadillac CTS-V Sedan. It's a 2010 in manual with Recaros. It has the suede wheel/knob and utlraview sunroof. It's down in Georgia so figuring out today if I'm going to have it shipped or go down to get it.

My plans:
- AirRaid Intake
- Eibach Springs
- V2V front splitter
- Black out the chrome

Down the road:
- TB, pulley, & tune
- Heat exchanger
- Brake pads & lines
- Powedercoat the wheels gunmetal

Goal is about 565-585whp (which is pretty simple with these)
