i'd think twice about the aluminum flywheel. alot of chatter and can be really annoying compared to stock. some people swear by them, some hate them.

Lots of threads on the aluminum FW....not the best for a DD. My car isn't running correctly yet so I can't tell you how great it is, but there is easily a 10# difference in the weight of the aluminum DS and the stocker.......

ya your car will rev faster. any reduction of rotating mass will cause the car to rev faster. kinda like a broomstick spins easier than a tree trunk.
It all makes sense now! j/k good analogy though....lol
not really, a broomstick will snap WAAAYYYY too easy when compared to a tree trunk [8D]
