A Y pipe is the exhaust pipe from your engine to the catylic converter. Get the y pipe, intake, and exhaust first, then worry about the flywheel. Good luck

definitely think about your more basic mods before you think about the flywheel. an aftermarket flywheel is lighter than the one on your engine right now. because its lighter, the engine builds revs more quickly - a plus in turbo applications because the turbo sppols up quicker. but, you have to remember that the engine is going to drop revs at the same speed, which can make shifting smoothly a little tricky.

yeah, get the normal performance mods before you even think about getting the flywheel...you can worry about the flywheel when you wear out your clutch....
besides, the flywheel ain't cheap...
