Wheel Weight stock vrs. better looks?

I recently bought rims for my turbo. I noticed that the wheelweight is 4lbs per corner vrs the old stock setup. What is the performance lost can I expand old wheel weight setup? With 16lbs on the rotation that is?

Can I now, as always, outrun that lambo that I was running against today? "I won every time though" His car sounded sick though. By the sound made another driver swerve in fear! I have the Europipe stage 2 and never could make that happen. love the sound but "wow" sound was more incredible on that lambo! Hopefully he is posting something similar about my little 6..?

What is the HP lost in HP with wheel weight?
