I need a new clutch kit regardless of what happens. But, I'm debating on wether to buy a 8lb flywheel and clutch for $340 shipped, or buy a clutch for $170 and an AEBS IM for $140.

Performance mods are
I have a stock bottom end B18a w/ B16a head w/ GSR cams
Greddy 4-2-1 header
RS*R ex mag exhaust
Carsound high flow cat
Akimoto SRI

 

I say get the flywheel while youre gunna have the tranny out to install the clutch anyways. Im pretty sure the flywheel will get you a better gain than the IM, plus you can get the IM and install it anytime. The flywheel would cost more to install in the future since youll have to pull the tranny again, and if you do it yourself, itll just save you headaches to do it now rather then wait.

I got a 12lb ACT streetlite flywheel, it made a difference, but not as much as i hoped for, im planning on getting the ACT Prolite which is 8.8lbs

 

Hmm. Nice point.

 

Yea since the tranny is out you would be better off just getting the flywheel put in also. I have the fidanza 7.5lb and it made a nice difference.

 

Same here i put the fidanza flywheel in mine and it made a very noticable difference.

 

yup since u have thte tarnny out i saw flywheel also and get intake mnaifold a little later. i also felt the difference after the flywheel it wasnt too much. but you can feel it.

i heard it lowers track times?????

 

1st pulls harder and 2nd a little, but third and on is the same. it feels like there is more response under vtec also in gears.

 

So it doesn't make a big difference after 1st and second? Does it rev through the powerband much quicker?

 

yeah it revs up pretty fast, and drop out of the powerband quick also

 

get the flywheel and cluth together and save yourself the trouble of having to drop your tranny again
