    That's an interesting question.
    Are you asking about physical weight or rotating weight.

    Maybe one with the TBS billet case????? I think you would have to collect the lightest parts available for the thing if you are really concerned about the weight.

    So I'm curious, why are you concerned about the weight of the blower? Less weight more speed deal? How much weight difference can there be?

    It's at the shop so I can't weigh that combo.

    Someone makes a unit that crosses two points and should comply better with the CoG gods for boats that like to turn sharply.
    And then, If I can get the weights, have the guru's explain which of the lightest would be better.
