Anyone know the weight of the ENTIRE exhaust from the cat back?

Grinder · Nov 20th, 2002, 08:04 PM

Yeah http://www.mini-madness.com/item.jht...0&PRID=1231467 its 54 lbs.

Thanks Grinder you are the man as usual

We weighed it at 44 lbs from Cat back without the hangers when we did the Borla install LINK

I think with variables involved + 5 lbs is not out of the question especially when adding hangers. I don't see where we could have missed 10 lbs though.

I will weigh everything again once the new test exhaust comes.

Thanks Guys

stock system: flange back to two mufflers: 35 lbs on my scale. all 2-1/4 pipe, except crossover is 2-3/4 and twinned pipes from last muffler to tips are 1-1/2"

rogue system: flange back to resonator, twin mufflers: 25 lbs, on my scale. all 2-1/4 pipe

ficcion · Nov 21st, 2002, 08:09 AM

What kind of scale are you using?

jlm · Nov 21st, 2002, 10:36 AM

my UPS freight scale, probably accurate to a pound.

ficcion · Nov 21st, 2002, 11:07 PM

Hmmm...can't figure out reason for so many descrepancies regarding the stock exhaust from cat back?

I've seen 35 to 54 lbs. That's just too much difference.

Hmmmm....

911ETR · Nov 21st, 2002, 11:26 PM

Yes its really strange. Maybe some are full of sea water

I am sure it cant be easy to weigh. You need a hanging scale or a truck scale.

oops! typo for the stock exhaust: it is 53 lbs, not 35lbs.

and I just re-weighed it to be sure. that is for the flange back including hangers.

That sounds much more reasonable.

Thanks for clearing that up. I felt it had to be at least on the heavier side of our numbers seeing as we didn't include all the hangers.
