Flywheel

For the longest time i have been debating wether or not to chip my car, ive decided no for now since i can't find any worthwile reviews of the major chips and how they are in the long run, if anything im might get a newspeed since it forces the engine the least however i have a good deal of miles on my car and i dont want to force the engine.
Instead i have taken this approach, do everything i can to make the engine work less for more power instead of actively pushing it.
so far ive gotten crank pulley, grounding kit,splugs(denso), intake, ehxaust, and now i got a great deal on a stillen flywheel and clutch from what my friend tells me it is a ggod part and even in top end i wont lose acceleration it just wont be as hearty as it is in the bottom end.
My question is, has anyone here had any experience with these kinds of parts and what can i expect from it.
As i have heard it turns your car into a whiplash ride and makes starting from a stop more difficcult, however i have heard nothing concrete about power gains and losses(i know you do not actually gain any power but there is the question of torque loss) any help would be apprecieated, and i really need some input as far as chips go since i am really hesitant to change anything that hsa to deal with the turbo.
