Weight savings with Milltek......
While there haven't been any published test results of power changes with milltek downpipes from any source to date, I wonder what the weight savings are for these units over stock. Could be a fair bit. Overall weight reduction with DP + catback could be 50-60lbs. Anyone have this info?

I can definitely speak...
...to the weight savings of a recently installed Magnaflow system:
OEM Exhaust: 64 lbs.
MF Exhaust: 37 lbs. (w/ hardware)
Weight Savings: ~27 lbs.
Everything was weighed on a hanging digital scale.
I know this doesn't address your question regarding the Milltek system, sorry.

>37 lbs vs.64 lbs
IIR correctly, the stock system weighed 67 lbs.
The MagnaFlow system weighed 35-27 lbs with the hardware.
The Milltek system is, I believe, a tad lighter, due to the smaller mufflers and lighter weight gauge steel.
