Yeah, I'm getting engine work and to save money they said they'd drill my flywheel. I told them not to. For integras I'd say spoon is the best. The jun flywheels are a little too light, you lose a lot of off the line torque.

they put it on a lathe that shaves off metal.... however the drilling you are talking about i believe is used when they balance it

Yeah, I can't afford to spend (blow) $450+ for a flywheel.

Isn't the ITR flywheel simply a lightened GSR flywheel? ONe could lightten their stock wheel to shave off a few pounds and basically have an ITR flywheel (correct me if I'm wrong).

I think the problem is that people get too extreme...

i dont know if its a lightened gsr one. i dont think it would be. to me though i havent seen flywheels make a huge difference(in my own personal experience). some people say they loose tourque and others swear by them so i figure that for 100 bucks its a pretty good deal. besides you cant go wrong puttin r parts in your car.

Well, I'm hoping the spoon flywheel helps out a decent bit, I was thinking of getting a Jun flywheel, but they're mad expensive. I just think it's smarter to buy things made specifically for a purpose, not adjusting them later on.
