d series header weight dc 4-2-1 1pc vs. oem 2pc
i recently aquired a used dc 4-2-1 header and i was shocked by how much lighter than the oem peice it was. anyway i threw them on a bathroom scale. sorry im not accurate to the ounce 
factory 2pc d16z6 header: 24lbs.
d16 1pc dc 4-2-1 header: 11lbs.
giving me a healthy 13lb loss in front of the tires
however any 2 with more flanges is going to weigh more than a 1 peice.
front to rear weight balance benefits puts it even with the average cf hood
i know this post isnt extremely techinical, but i searched for results and really got nothing not worthy so this is more for the sake of posterity
