Stock strut bar

Anyone know the weight of the stock strut bar in the engine...? I want to replace mine, but not for the cost of extra weight. So...

Found it on a swedish site "Streetperformance.se" http://streetpower.se/catalog/produc...oducts_id=2456 The price is about $350 (todays currency), and I don´t know the weight of it yet.

Judging from whats being said the design of the strut bar is purely for cosmetic s and does not do the intended job , i am glad you didnt spend your money on it . :D
