i just got an ACT clutch kit for my gsr (heavy duty pressure plate,performance organic street disc) it is a daily driver. should i get a 12.5 or 8.5lb flywheel? what differences will i notice between the 2? thanks

 

if it is daily driven, then you better get 12.5lbs

 

12.5 for a daily driver
due to heat.

 

8.5 lb. - No problem on a daily driver.

7.5lb daily, no probs

 

I have the 12.5 and kick myself everytime I drive the car. I should have gone 8.8. My car is daily driven and is my only car. I take it snowboarding every weekend, autocross it 1/2 times a month, and I should have gone lighter.

 

yeah, go lighter. comptech's got a sale on the 7lbs flywheel for 350. thats the one i got and its fine for daily driving. the throttle response is so nice and quick. just a small blip of the throttle and the engine responds instantly.

8.5, it will rev like a bike.

 

8.5

 

to quick revs

 

8.5 is not an issue for a daily driver. Got the comptech and I love it.

 

12.5 is basically an ITR flywheel. It's nothing special.

Your flywheel weight depends on yoru power. All motor - 8.5. Boost - 12.5.
