Do you guys think i shoud replace my stock flywheel for a aftermarker flywheel?, I'ma be boostin real soon you think its worth replacing it? or stock flywheel could handle the boost? if you guys think i should what flywheels do you think are best in the market? thanks

 

will you drag race with it?

 

yea i plan on hittin the 1/4 mile track.

 

flywheel is not required for boost. id do it if i was n/a ...i mean ur rpms will climb like crazy in a boosted car anyway.

 

Well. I say go for it. I have the fidanza in my lude right now, pretty good. It'll help you get to full boost sooner.

 

o yea interesting. what are the good flywheels out therE?

my experience is, if you go too light it hinders your ability to get out the hole.

Sorry man. Seriously, that went right over my head. Could you explain a little?

 

My buddy has a 2000gsr w/ drag kit, 9lb flywheel, lsd.

even with the lsd it is nearly impossible to get a decent consistent launch, mostly because you would have to "over shoot" the rev target so that you could try to get a good launch, which would result in spinning your *** off. If you tried to launch at a lower rpm it would just bog off the line. I firmly believe its due to the loss of rotational mass inertia of the lightened flywheel.

on my set up, i have a middle of the line 12lbs and it launches and revs just beautifully.

 

I can launch perfectly. I don't know what kind of clutch he has - i'm using a 6 puck ceramic clutch. It launches great. You just have to get the feel for it.

 

what kind of 60fts do you pull?

 

don't go with a fidanza the can warp and chatter. Cynrgy makes a 4 plate flywheel and it is proven to warp less. also these plates are replaceable.

 

my buddy did it on his boosted gsr and it made a world of difference, i am doing mine soon as well on my 01 turbo gsr

should i stick with the stock b16 flywheel?, would the stock cause launching problems?

my setup right now is a exedy stage 2 cerametalic clutch and pressure plate with a quaife lsd

 

Nothing wrong with the B16 flywheel.Put the money towards some drag radials or slicks.Those will make an improvement without debate.

People who say that light flywheels hinder launches need to go learn how to drive.
