Stock exhaust to Borla cat back: Weight savings?

Hey all, I'm planning on purchasing a Borla cat-back. My stock muffler is showing rust and there is a good price on the marketplace, so it seems like a good plan. I don't expect night and day power gains, but a little bit and a good sound would be nice. Considering headers soon as well.

I'm curious about the weight savings. OutMotoring lists the shipping weight for the borla at 30lbs. Does anyone know what the stock cat-back on an R50 weighs? I found a thread about the R53 but nothing for the Non-S.

Not sure off hand, but a dealer should be able to hook you up with that info!
