Flywheel and auto-x

I searched but I couldn't find anything on this topic. I'm looking at the 2 ACT flywheels. the 8lbs and the 11lbs one. I'm going for auto-x and I wanted to know which one would be better.

why the heavier flywheel for the turbo?
I think there's also a 6.5 lb one made by some company... though that seems pretty light, you're going to have to really pay attention to your rpms with a flywheel that light...

yeah man thats why you wont spool as long and you'll end up damaging your tranny if you get a turbo your gonna need a stong heavier flywheel if you have a turbo, you'll just be spinning with the 6 lbs for sure, the longer your in gear the better
