I agree with you on the quality of the exhaust because overall it is pretty good. However, I found it heavier than expected. I believe that if it is lighter than stock, its not by much, but it sure sounds good. The sounds is very clean deeper than stock.
Thanks buddy... So you fubarred that bolt too? It was just very surprising. It was one of the bolts connecting the y pipe to the mid section. I mean it was my fault, for not getting the socket square on the nut... but still.... damn.... that was WAYYYYYYYYYYY more than 40 ft lbs from the DIY here that I read. More like 100 ft lbs or more.... damn... and my car only had less than 600 miles total, and has NEVER seen rain, so the underbody was clean as day.

As far as the weight of the system... someone posted on page 1 with the same question.... so I know shipping weight total was 75 lbs... so minus all the packing including box, I'm thinking no greater than 65 lbs for the total exhaust only items? Is that bad? What's a GOOD weight? I thought it was pretty light!

And yes the sound..... oh yesssss.... Love it. However, been raining here, so haven't driven it since Sunday Not till tomorrow....
