The search function sucks. Type flywheel and you get 2 threads on the whole board. Am I an idiot or is it useless?

Comptech! 6.75lbs is the lightest one available.

Quality... It's what Realtime uses!

Oh, and even though it is light it is still completely drivable!

And just like the Jun – Toda war, there is another one raging between chromoly and aluminium flywheels. You will have to pick a side!

I have a brand new in the box Fidanza Flywheel I will sell you for $300 + shipping. It is 7.3 pounds and from what I hear and read on this board it is a great product.

I say go Toda, Spoon, Exedy, Cusco, or Jun. Any and all of these are full chrome-moly which are the most reliable and strongest.

Question, is there a disadvantage in picking too light of a flywheel?

If there is one thing I can say about my car that truly shines is the pick-up. Throttle response is immediate and acceleration in the lower gears is improved dramatically! The effect of the flywheel in the higher gears is less noticeable.

Perhaps the biggest advantage comes when I’m at the track and going through the gears under braking. Rev matching is MUCH improved!

I have the toda, which was installed last thursday with an exedy clutch. So far, Ive been babying the clutch due to the claimed 500 city mile break in period, and I haven't been able to romp on the car yet to see the full effect of this upgrade. However, the car does bog less, and for a flywheel that weighs under 9lbs, it is exceptionally civil in stop and go traffic. One of the reasons I picked this flywheel is that it is very lightweight, but it is also chromoly, so you don't have to worry about it fragging at high rpms.
