Just asked them if it would work -- if not, maybe they have another product that would.
So that one only works with a 120amp alternator -- the sales director says our cars have up to 200amp alternators, and it's a no-go -- replied asking if there's another product, or one in development, and encouraged them to do so, sign up here, and sell us some light, high-tech batteries.

Better off going with the 15lb braille.

Correct. They are 13"

We do some extreme testing with our cars (we own many) and never had a single issue with cross drilled rotors.

This brake kit isn't meant for road course duty. It is a light weight kit designed for street use, and of course works great for a drag racer. I saved exactly 50lbs with this kit. That's a lot.
Hi

Will this 13'' rotors+caliper kit bolt straight in a 19 Wheel?

Very interesting theard indeed, the ''how to put your Mustang on a diet'' thing I was looking for, still I see a good few things missing here, among a few others:

Alu rad
AC delete
Rear seat delete
Front and rear Steel defenses.
Doors gutting
Lexan front and rear Windows.
Power Windows.

I've got a C3 Vette that I've lowered to 1260 kgs (2.780Lbs), dropping here and there every bit and the car is still streetable...

I'd like your opinions on alu rad (who sells them? Is the stock brass?), AC delete, will have some sort of evil return on the computer management?, front/rear Steel bars, what do you think of Watson racing kit? Did any of you guys ever opened your Stang doors to look how much junk is inside?

Watching the GT350 technical video yesterday it talks about the fact the crash reinforcing bar that sits behind the bumper but in front of the radiator is made from aluminium instead of steel on the GT models. That would be a good weight saving on the nose of the car if you could get hold of the shelby part....

I weighed all components that came in my MGW Shifter shipment. 11# flat. It would be a little less since not every single thing goes on the car

Maybe I'm blind and didn't see this, but I don't suppose anyone knows what the weight of a GT hood is?

Yeah ill take dba 2 piece for cheaper then that. 1000 per rotor is stupid.

I weighed my 2015 EB Premium, with automatic transmission and performance package (no other options) and just a little less than half a tank of gas today. Car weighed 3576 pounds, without me in it. Car was empty of all other cargo....just a drink in the drink holder and owner's manual/registration papers in the glove box. Anyone know what a non-Performance Package weighs? I have heard the Performance Package adds +/- a hundred pounds.
