Default Lightweight flywheel, worth it?

since the tranny is coming off for a rear seal replacement, should I throw on a fidanza wheel too?

clutch is still in great shape (ACT street setup)

A lightened flywheel will have no detrimental long term effects on your car. However, it will improve acceleration and decceleration.

flywheel owners, what do you think of it?

getting my Fidanza in from kyle at ks motorsports sometime this week. I'm N/A now but by winter I will be boosted 9lb street and 15-17psi at the track. Here is a link that refers to boosted cars and flywheels.

I have a clutchmasters flywheel (it's the same as a fidanza) and I love it. The car revs up faster...I have no loss of low end or torque..I can still fry the tires on the launch...You may have to slightly change your driving style... You have to give it a slight tap more gas when letting out the clutch for normal driving as there is less inertia there, but there is no problem. You do have to shift slightly faster, but not noticably so....I would definitely get a lightweight flywheel again.
