Thanks! Is the weight for the B and B or Borla for both sides or is that each side?

Corsa claims 12lbs lighter than stock. However I'm not looking to spend corsa money at this point.

Lots of guys get the TI's because they're cheap, plentiful and light.

I'm actually leaning towards the magnaflow XL setup. but I'm not sure it will be loud enough.

Straight pipes will be the lightest, loudest, and probably cheapest. But in my opinion, sound like crap.

No exhaust would probably be the lightest option.

I used to have this exhaust. It probably is light, I didn't weigh it, but its certainly lighter than stock.

I didn't like the way it sounded. If you have a cammed engine with headers it would probably sound good, but on a stock engine I didn't like it, and it had a real bad drone. Probably flowed really well.
