I'd say it weighs closer to 15 lbs. It's not a feather weight, but it doesn't feel as heavy as my kid's bike.

Internal construction is a very mild "Y" design. The pipe between the two 2.5" holes is straight through design with a mild "bump" to help divert airflow from (now 'to') the 3" port.

Check out mah mad Paint skillz for an example, y0!

Thank you. I will say that is sounds a lot better than it did when I bought the car:

"Clank - Clank - Clank - Clank - Clank - BANG! - BANG!- BANG! - wrapwrapwrapwrapwrapwrap - hissssssssss"



And no, it wasn't the IMS. The entire crankshaft broke in half.
