Should be more than 20 grams bro.. at least 45-50 grams if you were using FP-S9550 as steering servo.
With 60 grams it would change your car handling.. better direction.
Pyramid notes that the alu. mid pulley mount is way higher than plastic one so front belt would not scrub chasis anymore.

I told him to let me know once it becomes available.
Speaking of the servo, I'm using the Sanwa WRX for steering. Do you think 20 grams of ballast is enough to counterweight ?

As for WRX, I think another 100grs will make it perfect balance
