Compared to the blaster mod pipe I have its a 5lb+ weight savings. Unfortunatly I dont have an aluminum chamber around here to compare to.

3-4lbs difference?? My manifold, head pipe and carbon chamber are pushing 10lbs.
:booty:

I guess it's just for the bling factor. :afro:
Let's see some concrete numbers on how you arrived at 10-11 lbs. I am curious.
Like I said my postal scale goes out to tenths of an ounce BUT only goes up to 5 lbs
chamber:1lb 10oz
manifold:3lb 2oz
head pipe: ??? (considerably over 5lbs)
Ooops sorry I thought you where refering to the weight of the pipe....concrete numbers on the total setup I have no idea but...I know the flywheel is right around 3lbs lighter, the single Powerbomb and blowsion F/A is considerably lighter than the dual 38s and the pipe setup...well you have seen that. I plan on getting actual numbers shortly. Coupled (probably next year) with an Xmetal box, a new hood, and a diet I would expect to see a pretty significant weight loss....again not that I am hung up on numbers I just dont have the coin to afford a big engine and have fun playing with these numbers. As long as I can cut the weight off my body I have no doubt that I can get near 35-40lbs lighter than where I was when I bought it new.
*disclaimer, I know I am not the best rider, have the lightest ski or make the most power so we can skip over those comments

You guys must have some serious oil build-up in your b-pipes.
My exhaust manifold only weighs 1.46lbs and the head pipe weighs 2.78lbs?
Did I purchase the light weight model? :Eyecrazy:

:haha: I think you have a junk scale, you are not stuffing these parts in your pocket and jumping on the bathroom scale are you?
My manifold looks like it just came out of the box, the headpipe is in the same condition minus a spray fitting and the chamber is clean inside too.
You want to sell that light weight B pipe? LOL 50% weight reduction is pretty good

I think your chamber is a bit too light, according to my weird scale and chamber. :dunno:
You're saying my carbon chamber is not 1lb 10oz? If you felt it you would believe it...talk to crammit he knows.:fing02:
Gotcha, :icon16: its getting late anyways. :wave:
