Default ACT Flywheel question ?

I did a search for this and alot of stuff came up but does not pertain to my question. I'll try to make this understandable cause I'm a n00b and don't want to get flamed. OK, now for the question. I am currently in the process of a B18CR-(5) swap. I haven't put it in yet because I'm upgrading the clutch to an ACT. I would like to know for all of you who has upgraded their FLYWHEEL in the R's whether anyone has tried the ? If you have what are the pro and con's of each? Like the streetlite(12lbs) and prolite(8lbs), Thats what I believe it's called. Is it really worth it or not? Any help would be great.

Thanks !

I bought the prolite and have it sitting on my floor. I'm waiting on the B motor to come in so I can tell you in two weeks or so if there are problems at least at the break in point. Until then couldn't tell you but I've done plenty of searchs on this board and come to the conclusion you have to try it yourself as there are people stating both sides of the spectrum.

That's a huge fat lie. I have a prolite with my torqueless B16... I can pull up hills easier with it. Love my flywheel, its my favorite mod.
