My SS/SC weighted 2880 without me in it and with 1/2 a tank of gas .

 

I've currently got back seats+back seat bar, spare+jack+trunk mounting hardware, rear trunk carpet, and passenger seat all removed. I wonder what I'm at.

It sure drives different. Boost builds up a bit later (1120 vs 1050 or so), but it sure hauls on stock or tuned modes. I'm still making 22-23psi, so I may have the weight sweetspot I'm hoping between weight and engine load for the turbo.

 

Anyone know off-hand how much the back seats weight? Just curious

 

I thought I read months ago it's like 20lbs.

 

Oh wow thats like nothing

 

With mine the way it is nobody in it 2860.

 

the seats are very light

 

weighed mine at a cheese companys truck scale, 2860 full interior full tank. mind you mines a no options LS

 

Yeah, the bottom cushion of the backs is mainly foam. The back cushions of them have a little more substance to them.

When you take them out, take out the tie-bar for them too. It's got a marginal amount of weight to it too and you're not needing it anyway after the seats are out.

If you're really **** and don't plan on having passengers anytime soon, the front passenger seat's got some good weight to it, so some good savings can be had there. Make sure to disconnect the electrical connection to it (the wire to the passenger air bag sensor) before pulling it out of the car.

 

Does the backseat really weigh much? I was poking around and it doesn't really seem to be made of anything that weighs much...

 

I say the best weight reduction is a nice big ****. LOL

 

Weighted my SS/TC today ....... 1/2 a tank without me ..... 2880 LBS Both cars were done on NY state certified scales at different locations .

 

soooo i weighed the car tonight with me.. it said 3460... wtf

u guys' cars are that much lighter?

im 6'3" 220

 

Everything's bigger in Texas....?

Wait... is that with you in it? The weights they posted up were without them.

 

well unless you weigh less than 120...

 

mine was 2800lbs with no spare, jack, back seats, cf hood, and no back seat bar. all together took off about 120lbs so stock weight of mine full tank is 2920 give or take a few lbs

 

Sweet! That's very similar to my configuration right now, so that helps to know.

I don't have a CF hood, but my passenger seat is out, so maybe that equals out. I also have no rear truck carpet and have been keeping it at half a tank or less.

 

i see. but even without me. that would mean it was 3240... wtf.. how do i have almost 400 more lbs????

i still had the spare and backseat etc.. but dang..

 

2960lbs. w/out me in it.

1/2 tank of gas & a boxed sub. No spare tire.

 

anyone know the differance between w/sunroof and without?

 

You mean 2950 w/ 1/4 tank remember... lol
Scale was in 20 increments and kept switching between 2940 and 2960

 

^ Oh yea.. What he said Whoops

 

I fit 2 tires in mine???????

 

Lets see...you are a 2.4 with custom piping and intercooler and turbo plus a manifold. Those rims are probably a little heavier than stock. All that little extra stuff has to account for something, maybe brings it to 3240? AND you were in the car so thats another 220.

That or maybe the scale you used was not calibrated right

 

mine weighed 4500 with a stripper pool,lava lamp, two strippers, and and some fat bitch in the front of my car on the hood. she said she drove a cts i dunno lol
