Well, I've got a 12lb one and it's a little annoying in traffic, but perfectly fine for normal street use. You will notice your revs drop faster. I personally thought it made it easier to rev match

Answer : NO.

It is very streetable - i wish people would stop saying its not. I guess its all your preference, but if a 333lb man can do it - you sure in the hell can also.

I have a fidanza flywheel on my daily driver lude and haven't had any problems with it. I revs so much more freely compared to stock. It is a totally streetable setup. Fidanza also puts a friction disc in the flywheel where the clutch and flywheel touch so when you have to get a new clutch you can get a new disc rather than turning it or replacing the flywheel all together.

what?

If you change the clutch - that consist of the disc, pressure plate, bearing - and if you're getting a flywheel - that also. Just get an exedy or XTD clutch off eBay.

The stock flywheel does not have a friction disc that is separate. If you want to renew the surface of it you have to either get it turned or replace the whole flywheel. If you get a fidanza flywheel it will come with a new friction disc already installed on it. The next time you change your clutch out, rather than turning it or replacing the flywheel you can just order a new friction disc from fidanza.

i got an 8lbs. doesnt make any difference daily driving. as you get used to it like any other flywheel it becomes normal. i've had it for a few months and i have no problem or regrets.

Actually it's the other way around... The faster your engine is accelerating, the more power is freed up. So 1st has the biggest gain, followed by 2nd, and so on. In higher gears the gains will be *much* less.
