I would think you would get a flywheel that is on the heavy side becuase when you shift with a lightweight flywheel you rpms drop like a rock, but with a heavier flywheel they drop slower thereby allowing the turbo to not lose boost as fast as a lightwieght flywheel.

depends on your driving style... do u rev match alot? drag? autox? or just daily driving.

If you have money to blow and are going to change the clutch anyway, u'll have more fun with a lightened flywheel. otherwise, stock is fine.

I am planning on going with a 12lb flywheel when I change my clutch.

I rev match alot , but this is going towards a daily driver , and a little bit of autox . i mean very little autox.
