Default Flywheel question

I am planning on replacing my flywheel with a new one and wanted to know what kind of difference if any would there be in running a lightweight flywheel on my sohc VTEC. also will i have any difference in gas mileage (since the reciprocating mass would be less). Just wanted to know what others have experienced with them

If staying N/A, they're fun...but the rpms drop FAST between shifts. If it's going onto your EJ2 with A/C, it'd not go any lower than 11lbs cuz I hear people mention problems with their cars dying during idle cuz of the A/C and the FW would only help that situation.

I had exedy stg I racing clutch with 7lbs fidanza flywheel on my old gsr. Trust me you will love it, it is light and rev-up very quick. Feels a lot lighter and quick when you step on the gas. I highly recommend that combo.
