the difference is minimal. they pretty much cancel each other out so you get really no performance gain.

About the flywheel, I probably will end up getting a light weight one.

BTW, does anyone know what clutch would be good for my application? I'm gonna be running all motor and later on possibly a built motor (keeping the 2.4 block). I want one with close to stock pedal feel. Any clutch from a turbo 4g63 will fit my tranny, BTW.

I'm going to be putting a Zoom stage 2 clutch in my car in a few weeks. Its going to have a kevlar disc and should drive pretty close to stock, except it will hold more power.

I paid them back for my Firebird and then I bought my Talon... But, then there are some spoiled brats (cough)little brother(cough) that just get their cars given to them. Total them, and get more cars given to them...

Sigh... I hate spoiled brats...
