what is the best and light weight flywheel?
cheap and good suggestion will be the best

does those flywheel and be able use with other band's clutch? such as ACT clutch and spoon flywheel combination.

 

i'va used and installed quite a few Fidanza flywheels with no problems,been very happy.i believe Fidanza makes Clutchmasters' flywheels also.
pretty much any reputable manufacturer's flywheel should be good,and all that i've seen are stock spec as far as the shoulder height and everything else,so they can be used with any clutch.

I have installed about 10 of the ACT Xact forged chromolly FWs. they are really nice and are reasonably priced IMO. AASCO, CM, spoon etc... don't compare for the $

 

my act prolite is a beautiful thing. only 200 bucks too

 

i want one

 

what do you say to taking a stock flywheel and grinding it down?? has anyones done this with good results

the one i got with my motor looked completely trashed - heat spotted like crazy. just took the sander pad air tool thingy to it and walaa, a perfect flywheel.

You should have a machine shop lathe it for you...

And make sure they balance it afterwards...

Also don't go too light with that... if you shave off too much material it loses a LOT of it's integrity..

My buddy has a stock "shaved" flywheel in his VW... it's a little too light and it combined with a larger TB makes his car stall when it tries to drop into idle.

They work but aren't ideal... I'd spend the money if you can.

 

i didn't shave mine for weight, i just resurfaced it i guess to get rid of the heat spots ... not sure if thats what you were asking or not.

 

well i have a stillen flywheel and it weighs 9 pounds and it awesome, i want to try and take my stock one and grind it down so if need be for some reason i need to put it back ini do not lose the fun driving with the lightened one

aren't you getting turbo soon? most people don't run that light of a flywheel with turbo applications

cool, just don't see many people with them ... are you running a smaller turbo? like the greddy kit?

 

The lightest flywheel I've seen is the Comptech flywheel. It weighs around 6.5lbs.
Not sure about the price.

no,it's the FMAX kit-T3/T4,not sure what trim.everything i've ever read points to super-light flywheels being an advantage with turbos.

i am only runnigna small 14b so i don't think it will be a problem at all

 

I have the act streetlite(12 Lbs). reliable, but really didn't notice difference in throttle response or noticeable power gains between it and stock. If i could do it again i would go prolite(8 lbs.)

 

then how heavy is spoon's?
