Default Weight question: true duals vs. y-pipe

Lets approach this from a different angle. What is the weight savings going to duals? Lets suppose that the average person has a stainless steel 3" y-pipe and 3" stainless steel catback with a real muffler (no bullet). How much weight is saved going to 3" duals (aluminized piping), an x-pipe, and 12" bullet mufflers. I haven't gotten mine in yet, so I can't really guess accurately. But, maybe somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 lbs? What does everyone think?

BTW, I have 16" bullet mufflers, but I had a bigass Mufflex y-pipe with a 4" collector, so I think it evens out.
