Weight differnce between TII and N/A transmissions

Does anyone know how much more the TII transmission weighs than the N/A?I plan to eventually put one in my car(hopefully in the next year)but will be staying n/a for awhile yet.Just curious of how much weight it will add to the car.

If you think about it, the weight difference cannot be that substantial... could it?

Other the the Turbo Transmission being beefier inside and slightly bulkier on the exterior, they are relativly the same size.

They actually are.

If I remember correctly, the turbo trans is like at least 75 lbs.

I would guess the NA trans is more around 40 lbs.

Woah!

I guess the moral of this? We really do learn something new everyday.

The turbo gear case is thicker and stronger.
I think the shafts (input and output/counter) are thicker.
The gears are all stronger, so I'm assuming they are thicker.
