add in safety and then the insulation because all the whiners comparing the road noise to luxury cars and then you're hitting back to the 3300 mark.

drop the size of the engine and add roids? the pumbing would probably make up the difference in weight saved in a smaller engine.

we're not getting any lighter these days with all these epa/safety targets that need to be met.
