toda flywheel's are actually made very well. How many lbs is your flywheel?
Bang for the buck and weight wise would go to the type r flywheel.

a lighter flywheel would mean that your rpm would rise faster as compared to a heavier flywheel but as with anything that you do there is a con with a lighter flywheel. Rpm will also drop faster due to the lighter flywheel so just learn how to shift really fast.. 
if you shift fast then the lighter flywheel can be an advantage for you.
