Default What should I get, either Skunk2 manifold or a lightweight flywheel?

I have some money left over from getting my organic racing clutch and was thinking about getting a lightened fly wheel while getting my new clutch, but then I was thinking that I also wanted to get a skunk2 manifold,

I am not sure what I want to get?
What would help more out in perfomance?
And maybe should I get something else for around the same price

Need some advice?

Its a lot easier and saves you time if you put in a flywheel when swaping out a clutch. The intake manifold can always come later. Plus, without a set of bigger cams, you won't notice much gain for the manifold. It will just sound louder.

I'd get the flywheel since you're taking out the tranny out anways. You could get the manifold, but it would benefit with cams, pistons etc, and plus you'd have to get a new ECU to disable the butterflies...or whatever.

Get the flywheel. It will save you time and money. My mechanic said the same thing....the manifold by itself won't do much.

Get the manifold later.
