Opinions on lightened flywheels2002Drew 09-16-2004, 04:53 AM 2002 civ LX 2dr 5speed, light mods. Those of you that have gotten them, what did you think? Could you tell a difference? Mendari 09-16-2004, 11:55 AM Lightened flywheels will lose torque in the low rpm range but will spin faster. It will adversely affect the car in bumper-to-bumper traffic. 2002Drew 09-16-2004, 01:53 PM how much worse is it in traffic? Is there a noticable performance benefit to it?

Is there a noticable performance benefit to it? I would assume it wouldnt be too bad on an NA setup. Not bad to pickup if you only have light mods. But as for boost + an 8.5 lbs flywheel and clutchmaster3 = horrible bumper to bumper traffic. Also = bad gas mileage, because, more gas is required to give it the hee hoo from a stop. accelerates awesome when its already on the go, but, from stop and go driving it is however, do-able and bearable. But as for me, NEVER AGAIN, it is a definate no-no on my list. My recomendations to anybody boosting or planning to boost and considering a new lightened flywheel is-------------> just stay with the stock one ;) wongb18c 09-18-2004, 04:36 PM Might as well upgrade clutch while you're at it. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
