Are you sure we only added 30lbs with the supercharger? I though it was closer to 60lbs from random memory. I lost 26lbs with my battery, so that would be a nice offset. Ignoring the weight distribution until I buy coilovers to compensate for that. I'm gonna take off my front mount intercooler and weigh it. I finally got a proper digital scale for my weight loss plans.

I missed out on the lotus seats, but they were $500 overpriced.

sorry guys, back to the thread
tom its no-where near 60lbs.... i weighted in the stock stuff, that came in @ 38lbs (lots of metal brackets).... so with that subtracted the ess stuff came in a just under 30lbs added in the end.... i was pretty pleased with that....
