going from 15lbs to 8.5lbs flywheel i sure felt the difference as far as revving/driving goes, however, i never had anything to show performance wise..

No! That's just bandwagon talk. Lightweight flywheels don't make the RPMs rise/fall much faster compared to stock. It's not like you suddenly have an F1 engine.

There is no chance of falling out of boost with a light flywheel. That myth needs to stop. Even with my Prolite wheel, the revs don't fall fast enough - when I shift, the clutch still has to snap the revs down to match the next gear.</TD></TR></TABLE>

i agree mine doesnt drop too bad the only thing is like normal driving you need to shift faster..but thats ok because i always shifted too fast i needed to slow down to engage at the right rpm usually. anyways just Full throttle shift it....it does wonders
