buy an aftermarket one on ebay for like 149-169 and have no headaches.Yes the stock one could be lightened down to 12lbs, but it's risky if it's not done close to perfect.

how do i know if the cheap ones are balanced? man, 16lbs is light. im worried that if i get one any lighter the rpm will drop too much between shifts. oh yeah and i also have a turbo
