I would imagine ET's would drop - its harder to launch a car with a lightweight flywheel, and with a car with not much torque to begin with its tough. You really give up oomph off the line with one, but the responsiveness is better. These things are better suited to the track and autocross.

its not hard to launch a honda because of its low torque, but because of its flat torque, which in turns give u madd wheelspin...and hard to pick a certain rpm to launch at.

u will get quiker times most definitely. if u have a turbo it would help even more.
quiker meaning just faster without it, even by .1 of a second

I heard of some guy with an MR2. Apparently his ET's increased by something like half a second (he was 1/2sec slower), but his mph went up. I guess it does kill your launch.
