lighter flywheel on turbo car??
Well I turboed my car at the end of the summer, and now my stock clutch is obviously finished! I'm gonna buy a new clutch soon, but was wondering if I should also get a Fidanza lighten flywheel, or is not recommended for a truboed car and I should just resurface my original flywheel?
thanks
thanks

go lightened, to a point:
i ran an act 12 lb flywheel on my sohcvtec turbo, it was good, no noticeable spool loss.
right now im running an itr fly on my lsvtec, which isnt lightened aftermarket, but lighter than stock b series flywheels.
i hear things that aluminum flywheels are prone to warpage, so try a search on that and see what comes up. imo, i wouldnt get anything lighter than like 10-12 lbs

My 12lb is ******* sick over stock, you see some of these guys with like 6lb flywheels, itll be ridiculous for daily driving and shifting under boost pulls
id stick in the 10-14 range if i was gonna upgrade aswell
LSDmotorsports on homemadeturbo.com sells em real cheap and quick

hm. What exactly are the cons of having an 8lb flywheel when boosting?..........
Mine only has 500 miles, and i don't want to change when I boost.........
