weight difference between NA & TII driver train

sen2two · 01-19-2009, 12:42 AM

im undecided on wether to go with the stock drive train in my GTU (renesis swap in progress). or go with the TII tranny and rear. i have a complete set-up that im not even using. but i dont want to add weight as the car will remain in NA from. i want it as light as possible.

anyone know the weight difference?

well turbo II part WILL weight more. They are larger, heavy duty items. So that is going to happen. As far has HOW much heavier, i am not sure.

But what do you plan on making power wise with the renesis. If the motor is going to remain naturally aspirated, then there is no reason to use the Turbo II parts.

Also, are you going to run the 6 spd transmission?
