you could benefit for sure.. personally im a fan of lightened flywheels.. i have a 7.5lb fidanza in my turboed tegra. i notice it spools reaal quick. with a supercharged car as with any car a lightened flywheel will help reduce drag on the motor. Some people dont prefer them however because with a turbo is would aid it keeping the car in boost when shifting.. i prefer the quicker spool

Mad amounts of tirespin, and a difficult launch. It revs like a streetbike though, and heel/toe shifts are smoother than gravy.

This is with a clutchmasters 8lb flywheel. Next time I'll be buying a 12 lb unit.

hope that helps.

i have the ACT streetlite and I'm happy with that. I had the fidanza one on a SOHC and it accelerated so quick. I'd go with one around 9 to 13 lbs. that should be the best of both worlds.

I run LSD too, but the tires still spin. This is regardless of whether I'm running Azenis, Dunlop FK451, Toyo T1S, etc.

LSD is a necessary mod, especially when you get a good clutch/FW combo and run boost.
