Is a 255 Gram Silicone Implant More or Less Volume Than a 255cc Saline?

gg007
I've searched the web, but can't find info specifically for breast implants. Will a 255 gram silicone implant displace as much or less volume than a 255cc saline? I know there are material weight differences... and saline does not include the shell, where as the silicone does.. Reason I ask is I'm trying on sizers in cc, but getting silicones in grams.. Just want to make sure they are at least close to get proper results. Thank you..
