What kind of power are you making? Honestly I don't think I would have my spec stage 3 on the car if it was a DD or more than a fun only car. The pedal effort is pretty high and it WILL chatter a bit when taking off.
On the flywheel, I was not sold on it being worth it. Its alot of money, and I just don't think your gonna see great results. I just skipped it and got a aftermarket one in regular metal.

i got 363rwhp... i figured stage 3 would give me some room and it was cheaper than a 2+
the flywheel.... ive read that its worth it and cobra's gained ".2" seconds from it.

I don't see any way your gonna gain anything like that at the strip with just the flywheel. The stock isn't THAT heavy and the aluminum one isn't that light.
Put it this way, I didn't even notice my aluminum driveshaft and that was something like a 15+ pound weight savings.
Its alot of money IMO for just a few pounds, even rotational weight. If you have the cash though it isn't gonna hurt.
The stage 3 is pretty heavy, but so long as you don't mind a real stiff clutch your ok. It does chatter alot taking off from 1st though.

its heavy as hell. dont get a spec clutch its garbage. I hate the POS spec clutch I got in mine. It really took away the enjoyment in my car. It chatters so bad and overall makes my car feel like its a POS, not to mention it smells horrible when slipping trying to park or something. Go centerforce again

aint no way in hell spec better than centerforce, I had the worse experience in the world with spec so I dont see them being better than any company IMO, except maybe those POS ricer companies like zoom, actor something

If you're serious about you clutch, then why waste your money buying one off the shelf? Waco Brake & Clutch will build you a bad *** clutch that will outperform any Centerforce or Spec. Here is the info if you're interested. And it cost around the same if not cheaper.
