You're crazy fool. I just found out that for the clutch I want, the flywheel I want and the labor to install it comes to around $1300. I can't afford that shit, I just gotta ride it ill it breaks and I have no choice

I would definitely look into a light weight one if possible.
I get about 4 mpg more with my llight weight flywheel.
Its nice to be able to go 440 miles on one tank (hwy)

why would you gain mpg with a lighter rotating mass. doesnt it takemore energy on the highway because you are losing momentum from the loss weight?

ive done two clutch installs eith ACT and it grabs fairly hard.

I don't think I'd opt for a much lighter flywheel because I go up a lot of hills day to day.
