Default Is Gripforce a good flywheel?

Is this good or shitty? $275 with an exedy clutch.




Gripforce JDM Lightweight Aluminum Flywheels are manufactured using the most advanced materials available today such as ultra lightweight yet durable 6061 T6 aluminum and extra durable 1050 High Carbon Alloy Steel. The friction surface (1050 High Carbon Alloy Steel) is designed to work flawlessly with just about any clutch discs such as organic, kevlar and copper ceramic). The flywheel is constructed with Heat Treated 304 stainless steel fastners for extra strength and corrosion resistance. All Gripforce JDM Lightweight Racing Flywheels are passed engineering tests to 15,000 RPM and are guaranteed to be explosion proof at the said RPM.

* Weighs only 8 lbs (vs. Stock flywheel 13 lbs)

* Passed engineering tests to 15,000 RPM

* Made from the highest quality materials (6061 T6 Aluminum & 1050 High Carbon Alloy Steel)

* CNC machined and balanced

well i do use their "stage 1" clutch and its pretty good. it nows chirps both tires instead of one...but as long as the flywheel isnt "too" light everything should be okay...i think 10-12 pounds should be good....hope this helps

Looks like a fidanza. If i remember correctly there are a few other companies out there that sell flywheels remarkably similar to fidanza's.
Are they knockoffs? Or are they re badging?

I know a couple people that have fidanza flywheels one in a fully built b18c5 that puts 230hp to the wheels and on a zc with some minor bolt ons. Both of them were very happy with the product.
