The Exhaust weights 16 pounds and the cats are 4 pounds each for a whooping 24 pounds.

The pipes are 80mm or 3.15 inches. Very big.

Thanks Robert for the info. I do have a questions to ask about the upgrades you did on your car. I notice you went with revo for the flash instead of GIAC with GMG? Did you use HergesHeimer for the revo here in Lake Forest, CA. Do you have any problems with running lean or rich and any issues with engine light? Also, do you have to dial in the flash with the new exhaust? I hope you don't mind me asking so many questions.

I did go with Revo and used Hergesheimer for the install. Mark is a great guy (GMG is also a great place and they do great work. I know all of the tuners in LA and The OC and they all do great work. I like Revo because it allows me to fine tune the car and get the most out of the ECU.

No check engine lights, gas problems or engine issues. I run MS VP 109 only with a custom race gas file that I tuned over a three month time.

The new exhaust will require a slight modification to the ECU file, but I really will not know what to do until I run the car and log the data. I do this by attaching my laptop into the ODB II port and collect data while running the car in various conditions and modes. For example, cold weather, hot weather, WOT, around town and with the air conditioning running. This will give me a good amount of data to work with.

I went from a 8.4 to a 7.9 with this exhaust. I think I will be able to get down to 7.5 or so.
