you have my undivided attention. what do you recommend.

Can I ask you to weigh the stock take off muffler?
I am trying to establish true weight savings of all aftermarket stuff but I need the OEM muff weight first.

TP, I've heard the weight savings from stock Ford muffler box to aftermarket pipes like this and others is 40 lbs. I've put the Stillen pipes on my FGT and can vouch....BIG weight savings.

How much does the Accufab exhaust weigh?

just used my bathroom scale it read 55lbs it sure feels heavier than 55 tho.

Gentlemen,

I currently have the Accufab cat back exhaust on my GT but I did not weigh it before installing it. Has anybody weighed an Accufab exhaust system so I will know how many pounds I removed from the butt of my GT?

I should strap that 55 pound stock exhaust to my back and walk up a hundred flights of stairs a day. Then perhaps I could shave a few pounds from my other big butt. Thanks in advance for the information.

Chip

Just for grins try another scale. As I recall when I scaled my stock muffler, tips and bracket it was closer to 65lbs. My MMP pipe which is very similar to the Accufab in design weighed just under 12lbs complete.
