Mista, do you think that a B16a in a 1650lb car needs the same "help" from the flywheel. Im tossing up the benefits of a lightened flywheel myself.

if car is that light, and you runs slicks, go light and launch HARD!

In a light car too heavy of a flywheel launched at a high rpm = tire smoke!


It is a fine line, you must tune/adjust to your setup.

Default Honda-tech has officially lost my faith

And dude, if you hold down what we call the...

"Shift Button",

Then press a letter, you'll get what we call a...

"Capital Letter"

You'll want to perform this function to get a...

"Capital Letter"

With the first letter in each sentence that you...

"piece"

Together. This is good to do when you want to NOT look like a moron.
You officially made no sense right there. I'm tried of this... with you guys. I didn't start the crap (which you would see if you really looked back and read the post history), I just decided not to take it.

I was just making a valid point, also looking out for everyone's safey who does this (especially if you shave it yourself and don't balance it; which I wasn't sure if that is something you've done or not since I don't reall you mentioning it).

That'll teach me to care about the well-being of someone I've never met.

My cousin bought a stock b16 flywheel that was shaved down to almost 9 pounds. I didnt believe it at first untill i saw it and weighed it. The guy that he bought it from said that it was professionally done and was balanced by someone who knows alot about flywheels. damn thing revs up real fast and has been on his car for quite sometiime. Im kinda worried about the strength but i think the guy who did the lightening already thought about that.
