Default Good weight for a lightened flywheel???

I have a '98 Integra RS(B18B1) and need a new clutch soon. So gonna try and get a lightened flywheel and stuff.

What's a good weight to go with? I don't wanna go too low. Stock ITR is like 14lbs right?

All opinions will be appreciated!!
Thanx

To save on threads...I'm looking at an ITR flywheel. If I go FI I'm wondering if I should go lower?

i have a 9lb toda and my car is currently NA. it feels really nice in 1st and 2nd acceleration-wise; 3rd and 4th...eh..feel kinda the same, maybe a little loss in torque. hopefully i'll get off my *** next week and install my turbo and i'll see how the fw handles the FI.

Stock GSR is 17lbs and stock ITR is about 15lbs. For a daily driver I'd go no lower than 12lbs.

Cool!!

Ok, are there any cons to having a lightened flywheel? I mean lighter than stock...
Thanx

9-10lbs is perfect. Get a Toda or Spoon flywheel you will love with either one.

Any cons if you lighten your flywheel so much?

you do not want to lighten the stock FW more than 5 lbs or it will blow up and cut your *****

guys, I'm buying a Spoon flywheel in a day or two when I hear back from someone (=9.24 pounds), and I have a clutchnet stage II sitting in my living room right now. I'll be installing both in a week or two, so I'm sure you will hear from me on how it works out (for a turbocharged application)...
