Just did the very first Mountain Lite exhaust on a Vector from Excell Motorsports!
-Stock exhaust (plus all the nuts, bolts, side covers, etc) = 21 lbs
-Excell Motorsports (with all mounting hardware) = 5 lbs
16 lbs lighter total!

I also added last years version of TJ's seat. Total weight saved over stock on the seat was 13 lbs.
Look's good Allen>Did you put it on the scales yet?
Ryan, I haven't had the whole sled on the scales yet. I have been tracking how much we've been taking off piece by piece and we're up to 40 lbs now. I'm installing a EZ Ryde suspension in it this weekend (supposed to be 27 lbs lighter) and should have a Barkbuster Front End next week sometime (supposed to be 14 lbs lighter), I'm hoping we can be around 80-90 lbs lighter than stock with 200+ hp!
