Has anyone weighed all the components of the systems available? I'm curious as to what kind of weight savings (if any) comes with DMC/DPI/UK exhaust systems in comparison to the stock system.
I came across a scale. If no one else has ever done the math I'll spend some time weighing stuff.

That would be interesting to know. The stock manifolds are pretty heavy cast iron but headers have a lot more tubing. My guess would be the weight to be pretty much the same. The two CATs may make it weigh more for an updated exhaust.

I don't have exact numbers but I recently shipped a UK exhaust system and the total weight was 22 kg (it was very well packed, so I am assuming the real weight is around 19-20 kg)
The DPI exhaust is lighter, especially the muffler..

I believe the OEM weight is close to 60 lbs. with the brackets based on my own measurements when trying to sell my OEM exhaust.

Short answer. DMCH system is 7lbs lighter than stock.
