by the time you add in the extra wiring, screen, and hard drive, probably a couple pounds. Its not as if its a mainframe computer getting shoved into the trunk. Its sounds like the system mostly integrates existing systems into a controllable and user friendly interface, rather than the existing black box (or boxes). The only things that are heavy in electronics are subs, motors, and batteries. Actual circuit boards weigh next to nothing.
