I just installed a spec stage 1 with the stock resurfaced flywheel and it grips great but the chattering is annoying as hell. its starting to calm down and I've only gone 15 miles out of the 500 recommended break in.

I have personally ran in my own car, stock, NAPA replacement, Cobra disc, King Cobra, Centerforce DF, and Centerforce Stage II.

Centerforce clutches all the way; worth the extra $100 to me.

I dislike Specs, through a couple experiences (chatter).

Fidanza makes the cheapest aluminum flywheels and they are very popular.

Centerforce is my favorite AFW, but it is some $$$.
