Define "biggest". The stock FD setup weighs in at a hefty 40-50 lbs or so (guess).

But other than that, I'm gonna guess 28 just in case it is higher than 3trick guessed. I learned that move on The Price Is Right.

This is what I mean; can a turbo for an rx7 be this big or about 50lbs? How is this compare to a T-78 or T-100? Can it fit into a FD?
