New PW210S Engine question

Hello boys and girls,

I have a question about the new PW210S engine. Does anyone know what the dry weight of the engine is? It is not written in the TCDS =(

In a report i recently completed I have written 110kg about it. I remember saying "there is no way this engine is 110kg!! its too low!!" but the referance was so reliable, i had to write it.

Now, my manager sends me back the report, saying "there is no way this engine is 110kg! its too low!" and asking for a referance, WHICH I FORGOT TO WRITE DOWN! (i have written referances everywhere in 100 page report, forgeting the most critical one)

now i cant find the referance anywhere!

my questions are:

1) is this value true?
2) if it is not, do you know what is the dry weight of pw210s?
3) if it is true, how do you know it is true? =) (any referances?)

any help is very much appriciated and awarded with imaginary cookies and stuff.

110 kg Seems a little low. The PW207 is 113.7 kg (EASA TCDS) and the Arriel 2S2 (which effectively it is replacing) is 130 kg (EASA TCDS.) So, even though it's touted as having the best power to weight ration in its class, 110 kg looks a few kilos light....

Could you have got the weight from this reference 107.5kg for the PW200 series, which seems to tag on the 210S at the end of the model list?

My questions are:
Answers on a postcard.

1) No
2) Yes
3) It's not (Trust me)

The PW210S DRY engine weight is 358 lbs (that's about 162 kilos in new money)
