Question about TBE

I know this sounds weird but I was wondering if someone could answer this question for me. Does 25lbs sound right for a TBE w/ a test pipe?

you are 100% wrong


Here is how it breaks down:
Stock downpipe, 10.5#'s
Stock cat, 13 pounds
Stock cat back, 36.5#'s

Our system weighs in like this:
Downpipe, 5.5#'s
Offroad pipe, 2.6#'s
Catback, 16.5#'s.

Total weight of our 3" system is only 24.6 pounds.

Too bad my scale at work reads so far off from yours .... I always thought TBE / turbo back exhaust, meant everything from the turbo back to the tip. You left out the O2 housing. The stock/OEM cat back weighs 40lbs. My Greddy Ti weighs 16lbs and then the test pipe weighs about 4 lbs for a total of about 20lbs....I could be wrong it has known to happen before....

not a lot of people refer to the o2 housing when they say turboback exhaust

which I understand makes no sense but it's true
