But I can tell you performance wise from the drivers seat it's totally impossible to feel the difference in power or weight of the exhaust change.
I measured the stock muffler at 43.7# w/o tailpipes (noted in the Eisenmann thread)--that is about 6 lbs. lighter than the E46 unit. The weight is not a huge factor for me. Most of the Ti units are super expensive and loud.
