How light of a flywheel? [B18B1 in CRX]

hey im putting a b18b into my super light 88 crx. Since the car only weighs 800kg would i be able to get away wth running a lighter flywheel like 8-9 lbs, or would i run into problems?

thanks

I think it depends on how much power you plan on runnin, on the stock moter id say youd be fine.

You can put as light of a flywheel as you want in any car as long as it is quality.

the lighter the better, as long as it's a quality piece. Driveability only improves.

Depends on how you look at it. Some people like the extra power transfer between shifts with a heavier flywheel. It's more "streetable". But yeah, performance wise, lighter is better.
